The breakdown of fat produces a. less than half the amount of energy than the breakdown of carbohydrates.
b. more than twice the amount of energy than the breakdown of carbohydrates.
C. the same amount of energy as the breakdown of carbohydrates.
d. less
less energy than the breakdown of proteins. .

The breakdown of fat produces: b. more than twice the amount of energy than the breakdown of carbohydrates.

Biological macromolecules can be defined as a very large molecule (structure) that comprises of covalently bonded organic atoms and smaller molecular structures (monomers).

Biological macromolecules are organized into four (4) main categories and these includes;

I. Nucleic acid: it comprises of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) which are the genetic codes (blueprints) for living organisms.

II. Carbohydrates: it is contained in energy-giving foods and it aids the functioning of the muscles, nervous system and other organs found in the body.

III. Proteins: it contains amino acids and it is responsible for maintaining the functioning of the body system.

IV. Lipids: these categories of biological molecules is mainly made up of fats and it is responsible for providing the body with long-term energy.

In Biology, lipolysis is a process which typically involves the breakdown of fat into glycerol and fatty acids, so as to produce the energy required by a living organism. Thus, the fatty acid that are produced during these process are released into the bloodstream of the living organism and transported to the tissue that uses the energy.

Generally, the breakdown of fat produces more than twice the amount of energy than the breakdown of carbohydrates because it provides long-term energy that is required by the body of living organisms to function properly.
