Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

While carbohydrates supply immediate energy for the body, lipids — a class of macromolecule — provide long-term energy storage. Lipids, more commonly known as fats, appear in many foods. There are dozens of lipids, many of which are important for living things.

Macromolecules are long term energy storage whereas carbohydrates are immediate energy. I think this is what you’re looking for?
