Answer:

The most appropriate answer would be A) Carbohydrates.

Carbohydrates are the macro-molecules made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

Polymers of the carbohydrates (such as glycogen, starch) are made up of repeating units of monosaccharides such as glucose.

They are used as the short-term energy storage in most of the animals.

Glycogen is the polymer of glucose stored in the muscle cells and are used as the short term energy storage.

Our body can convert excess carbohydrates or food into the fat which is used for long-term energy storage.

In plants, starch (the polymer of glucose) is used as the storage form of the glucose or energy.

The hair follicles are extending from the skin surface to the dermis layer of the skin. The hairs are the extension of the epidermis layer into the dermis layer of the muscle. The hair follicle has 2 parts, such as - the part which extends outside of the epidermis known as the shaft. The base of the follicle known as root. The hair follicle itself has different parts - outer root sheath, inner root sheath, and a centrally placed hair shaft. The erector muscles help in goosebumps of hair during cold.
