Problem A gram of fat oxidized by respiration produces approximately twice as much ATP as a gram of carbohydrate. Which of the following best explains this observation?A Fats are produced when cells take in more food than they need. B Fats are less soluble in water than sugars. C Fats do not form true macromolecules as sugars do. D Fats are closely related to lipid molecules, which are the basic building blocks of cellular membranes. E Fats are better electron donors to oxygen than are sugars. 16.
