Answer: a readily available source of energy.

The body of the organism receives energy by the break down of food. Carbohydrate is a complex form of food nutrients which when broken down into simpler sugars such as glucose. The glucose is sent to all the parts of the body and it is stored in the form of glycogen in the liver and muscle cells. It is a source of energy that is readily available when required by the body.
