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.

Sati [7]

Option (D) flagellated protist is correct.

The last common ancestor of all animals was probably a flagellated protist.

<h3>What is a Protist?</h3>
  • Any eukaryotic organism that is not an animal, plant, or fungus is referred to as a protist.
  • The absence of other eukaryotes means that protists do not constitute a natural group, or clade, even though it seems likely that they all descended from a common ancestor.
  • Protozoa is another name for protists that resemble animals. Some are parasites as well.
  • The four phyla that make up the Protozoa are flagellates, ciliates, spore-forming protists, and protists that resemble amoebas.
  • Nuclear membranes surround the DNA of protists.
  • Most protists are motile, or able to move, and many of them inhabit aquatic settings.
  • Protists can reproduce sexually and/or asexually, and their life cycles are intricate.
  • Protists consume, absorb, or produce food through photosynthesis.
