A carbohydrate is a bio-molecule consisting of various elements. Which of the following is NOT a major constituent of carbohydrates ?
Carbon
Hydrogen
Nitrogen
Oxygen
Option C: Carbohydrates are made of carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) atoms, usually with a hydrogen–oxygen atom ratio of 2:1 (as in water); in other words, with the empirical formula Cm(H2O)n. There may be little or no Nitrogen.
Learning: Carbohydrates perform numerous roles in living organisms. Polysaccharides serve for the storage of energy (e.g. starch and glycogen) and as structural components (e.g. cellulose in plants and chitin in arthropods). For e.g. the 5-carbon monosaccharide ribose is an important component of coenzymes (e.g. ATP, FAD and NAD) and the backbone of the genetic molecule known as RNA. The related deoxyribose is a component of DNA. Saccharides and their derivatives include many other important biomolecules that play key roles in the immune system, fertilization, preventing pathogenesis, blood clotting, and development. Carbohydrates are found in a wide variety of foods. The important sources are cereals, potatoes, sugarcane, etc. Starch and sugar are the important carbohydrates in our diet
