The instantaneous source of energy is

Options

  1. Aproteose
  2. Bfructose
  3. Csucrose
  4. Dglucose

Correct answer

D. glucose

Step-by-step solution

The carbohydrate glucose is a hexose sugar monomer which after ingestion gets absorbed directly and used as a substrate in the respiration process to generate ATP as a source of energy. Thus, making glucose instantaneous source of energy. Whereas fructose and sucrose are to be converted to glucose to enter the energy-releasing process.
