Answer:

The correct answer would be A) lipids.

Lipids provide the greatest amount of energy per gram.

On complete oxidation, lipids releases around 9 kilocalories per gram in comparison to the 4 kilocalories of the energy released by the oxidation of 1 gram of carbohydrates or proteins.

Lipids are used as energy reserves in the body.
