The chemical formula for the major component of palm kernel oil is ch3(ch2)14co2h. the chemical formula for the carbohydrate glucose is c6h12o6. which statement best describes these macromolecules as foods? glucose is a better energy source because it is the only one that can be broken down by living things. palm kernel oil would provide a quicker energy source than glucose because it has more carbon atoms that can be used. glucose is the only one that would provide energy to living things because it is a key product of respiration. palm kernel oil would provide more energy than glucose because it contains more carbon bonds, which release energy when broken.

Option (4).

Explanation:

Biomolecules are the important organic molecules of the living organism that plays an important role. Four important biomolecules are carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and nucleic acids.

Palm kernel oil is a lipid with molecular formula CH3(CH2)14CO2H. Glucose can be easily taken up by the cells as cells are more permeable to glucose. The largest amount of energy is provided by lipids rather than carbohydrates. Palm kernel oil contains large number of carbon than glucose and when broken down, kernel oil would produce large amount of energy.

Thus, the correct answer is option (4).

when atoms of different types of elements join together, they make molecules called compounds. water consists of compound molecules made up of 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom. this is why it's called h2o. water will always have 2 times the number of hydrogen atoms as oxygen atoms.
