Answer: The correct answer is proteins

Step-by-step explanation:

From an elemental perspective, carbohydrates, fats, and lipids are all composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Proteins include carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen plus three additional elements; nitrogen, sulfur, and phosphorus. Therefore, the elemental combinations for proteins are more diverse and complex in comparison.
