We store excess food in our body either in the form of carbohydrates (in muscles and the liver) or as fat (adipose tissue). When our body needs additional energy it uses the carbohydrate source first as a source of “quick” energy, then the far. Why do you think carbohydrates are used as a source of quick energy rather than fat? Use complete sentences and scientific terminology in your response.

Explanation:

carbs are mostly/ sugar, turned to glucose, then glucagon so cells can absorb broken down sugars or starches..

the body uses these sugars for fight or flight mode...

fats are made of proteins we eat. the body needs both to maintain homeostasis.

fat stays in the body longer because our bodies use this to contribute to survival to keep vital organs like the heart & muscle tissue working..

if you dont eat both u become lethargic, sleeping a lot, and higher thirst-rate.
