Lipid

Vedclass · Answer

(C) The energy content of food is measured in terms of gross calorific value or physiological fuel value. Carbohydrates provide approximately $4.0 \ kcal/g$ of energy. Proteins provide approximately $4.0 \ kcal/g$ of energy. Lipids (fats) provide approximately $9.0 \ kcal/g$ of energy. Since $9.0 \ kcal/g$ is more than double the energy provided by carbohydrates $(4.0 \ kcal/g 	imes 2 = 8.0 \ kcal/g)$,lipids are the correct answer.
