To determine the answer, we need to compare the calorie content of different nutrients.

First, let's consider proteins. Proteins contain approximately 4 calories per gram.

Next, carbohydrates also contain approximately 4 calories per gram.

Now, fats contain more than twice the amount of calories compared to proteins or carbohydrates. Fats contain approximately 9 calories per gram, making them the most calorie-dense nutrient.

Based on this information, the correct answer is D. Fats.
