Answer: Carbohydrates provide your body with energy. The simplest are sugars, like glucose, fructose, sucrose and lactose. Complex carbohydrates, like starch, are made up of lots of sugar molecules joined together.

The answer is glucose, or blood sugar.

Step-by-step explanation:

Carbohydrates are broken down into glucose and many other forms of sugar, which produce ATP (or energy) for the cell to use.
