Energy Identify Carbohydrates Organisms Marks Respiratory Substrates Stores

Carbohydrates serve as respiratory substrates for energy, are stored for later use, contribute to glycoproteins functioning as receptors, and are building blocks for macromolecules.

Carbohydrates are used as respiratory substrates for energy, for energy storage, in the formation of glycoproteins (receptors), and for building macromolecules.
