Carbohydrates (Check all that apply) a are polysaccharides b store energy c are made from carbons, hydrogens, and oxygens d are synthesized through peptide bonding

Answer 1

When it comes to carbohydrates, the following statements apply:

a) are polysaccharides - Correct; some carbohydrates, like starch and glycogen, are polysaccharides, which are long chains of sugar units.

b) store energy - Correct; carbohydrates are a major energy source for the body and can be stored as glycogen or fat.

c) are made from carbons, hydrogens, and oxygens - Correct; carbohydrates generally follow the formula (CH₂O)n, where n is the number of carbon atoms.

d) are synthesized through peptide bonding - Incorrect; carbohydrates are not synthesized through peptide bonding. Peptide bonds are specific to proteins. Carbohydrates are formed through glycosidic bonds.

So, the correct choices are a, b, and c.
