True or false. carbohydrates are the only macronutrient to readily yield energy anaerobically.

True. Carbohydrates readily provide energy anaerobically.

Explanation:

Carbohydrates, proteins and fats all combined provide energy to the body. But whenever our bodies need energy, out of the three carbohydrates are first used to provide it.

Carbohydrates include starch, sugar etc are readily broken down into glucose to fulfil the bodies energy requirements. Blood sugar is one of the most significant energy sources for the body to provide energy to the body at rest or while working. It’s also serves as an energy supply to the brain.

Digestion begins from the mouth. Our bodies release certain enzymes to breakdown food. Then each of our body cells comes in and uses the finished product aerobically or anaerobically into Adenosine triphosphate depending on the need. ATPs are rich in energy and provide fuel to the cells to perform functions.
