A) Carbohydrates
B Proteins
C) Vitamins
D) Fats
The muscles, tissues, and blood are all primarily made up of:
B) Proteins
Here’s why:
- Proteins are the building blocks of most body tissues, including muscles, skin, hair, and organs. They play a crucial role in various bodily functions like movement, enzyme activity, and immune response.
- Carbohydrates, fats, and vitamins are also essential nutrients, but they have different roles:
- Carbohydrates provide energy for the body.
- Fats store energy and provide insulation.
- Vitamins are needed in small amounts for various metabolic processes but are not major structural components of tissues.
- While muscles do store carbohydrates (glycogen) for short-term energy, proteins are the main structural component. Blood plasma contains various components, including proteins like albumin and globulin, which play a vital role in maintaining blood pressure and transporting substances.
