I legit just did this TODAY in biology class so I gotchu.


The answer is C.

Answer:

The correct answer will be option- C.

Explanation:

The carbohydrate molecule is one of the four macromolecules present in the living organism which performs several functions from storage to structural components.

The carbohydrate molecules are composed of structural units called monosaccharides which are usually glucose and fructose bonded with the glycosidic bond.  These monosaccharides form polysaccharides which can be stored in plants as starch and in animals as glycogen.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.
