Glucose which can also be fats from excess carbohydrates.
Carbohydrates actually get stored in the form of long polymers of glucose molecules or as glycogen starch. They provide energy to the animals for performing their daily duties. Carbohydrates are generally considered the fuel for all organisms, and without this most animals would become sloth and would be unable to perform the regular jobs. Carbohydrates are actually very easy to metabolise and hence generate quick energy.<span> </span>

Answer:

Life cycle of a moss

Explanation:

LIFE CYCLE OF A MOSS FROM MATURED SPOROPHYTE STAGE

An embryo further develops into a pear-shaped sporangium, which is the *sporophyte stage of the plant*. The sporangium contains spore sacs, each of which is the spore mother cell that undergoes meiotic division to form four spores,The spores are released and germination

takes place giving rise to a protonema, which develops into a new gametophyte plant. The gametophyte generation or haploid phase of the moss is from the production of haploid spores after meiosis to the period just before fusion of the haploid antherizoid or haploid ovum. The sporophyte generation or diploid phase is from the diploid mother cells just before meiosis.

Examples of moss plants include Funaria hygrometrica, Polytrichum commune, Barbuda Indica.
