Carbohydrate

Real World Example

Imagine trying to decide what to eat for breakfast when you're in a rush and need something quick yet filling. This is similar to how carbohydrates act as a quick and efficient source of energy for our bodies, much like grabbing a piece of toast or a banana on the go. Just as breakfast foods like sugar or oats provide the necessary energy to start your day, carbohydrates, which are composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, fuel your body's activities by breaking down into glucose, which is like the 'fast food' for your cells.
