Metabolic activities that involve "burning" carbohydrates release energy. When our bodies "burn" carbohydrates, what are we doing?
◦ breaking down food molecules into smaller molecules such as simple sugars that have more energy than the original food molecule and can be used in the cell more easily
◦ transferring energy from the bonds in food molecules to molecules that make that energy more readily available (like ATP) and releasing simple low-energy molecules (like CO2 and H2O) to the environment
◦ breaking down carbohydrate molecules to smaller components that are then used to build larger molecules that the body needs
◦ transferring some energy from the carbohydrate molecule to other molecules and releasing lower-energy food molecules into the alimentary canal
