Carbohydrates serve a number of different purposes in living organisms, but their main function is to store energy. Carbohydrates also serve as structural components, such as cellulose in plants.

Functions of Carbohydrates in the Human Body. Carbohydrate oxidation - provides energy. Carbohydrate storage, in the form of glycogen, provides a short-term energy reserve. Carbohydrates supply carbon atoms for the synthesis of other biochemical substances (proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids). Carbohydrates Carbohydrates serve a variety of functions E nergy storage and food Structure and support Lubrication Protection Recognition and signaling Component of nucleotides starch mucin (glycoprotein) Carbohydrates. Are the most common type of organic compound. Examples: Starch or sugar. Is used to store energy. Are built in repeating units to make a larger molecule.

They are called carbohydrates because, at the chemical level, they contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.. Unlike essential amino acids and fatty acids, there are no essential carbohydrates. This means we can obtain everything we need nutritionally from other food sources, so carbs are not necessary to maintain life..
