<u>Answer: </u>
<h2>
Lipids
</h2>
<u>
Explanation:
</u>
Lipids are the macro-molecules used to store energy in our body. They have the ability to store energy more efficiently and are called long-term energy storage.
They can store twice as much energy as other molecules. They contain nine Kcal of energy per gram a compared to proteins and carbohydrates which only produce four kcal per gram. They are present in our body in the form of fat and are insoluble in water.

Answer:
The movement of glucose across the cell membrane through facilitated diffusion one of the form of passive transport because it does not require the energy to transport the glucose molecule across the cell membrane and the transport is along the concentration gradient.
In facilitated diffusion the passage of molecules if facilitated by a carrier protein or a channel protein. The rate of transport of molecules in facilitated diffusion is greater than simple diffusion.
Through facilitated diffusion, some polar and charged molecules can cross the cell membrane without the expense of energy.
