HELP ASAP Which of the following is not an example of a carbohydrate?
a. oil
b. galactose
c. sucrose
d. lactose

A. Oil

Explanation:

Carbohydrates are one of the three main types of nutrients (besides fats and proteins) our bodies use as a source of energy. Carbohydrate molecules consist of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, usually with a hydrogen-oxygen atom ratio of 2:1 (just like in water). When we consume them, our bodies turn them into glucose, a simple carbohydrate our cells can use as food.

Besides glucose, some types of carbohydrates are galactose, sucrose, and lactose.

Oil is not an example of a carbohydrate. Most oils are unsaturated lipids that are liquid at room temperature.
