Carbohydrates: Carbohydrates are the most abundant organic molecules in nature. stored in the body in the liver and muscles in the form of glycogen.
Proteins and Amino Acids: Proteins are the most abundant organic molecules of the living system. There are twenty amino acids (AA) which have been found to occur in all proteins and for which genetic codon exits.
Lipids are broadly classified (modified from Bloor) into simple, complex, derived and miscellaneous lipids, which are further subdivided. found in cell membranes, cholesterol, blood cells, and in the brain
A chemical reaction which is associated with a release of energy and thus, is associated with a negative free energy change is said to be an exergonic reaction.
An exergonic reaction owing to the negative free energy change is a spontaneous reaction.
The energy that is released in the exergonic reaction is usually observed in the form of heat and light.
The energy is released due to the breaking of the chemical bonds.
Therefore, on burning of the firewood the bonds between the glucose molecules break up which leads to the release of energy in the form of heat and light and this is thus, an example of an exergonic reaction.
