Answer 1

Lactose and glucose are examples of **carbohydrates**, and provide us with quick energy. Nucleotides are the units that make up **nucleic acids**, like DNA. Oils and fats are included in the biomolecule group **lipids**, and can provide long-term energy. Amino acids are the units that make up **proteins**, which are used for growth and repair.
