Solution

Carbohydrates are the energy providing foods. These are stored in the form of glycogen in liver and in muscles inside our body. When the body needs extra energy(during exercise), this glycogen is utilized, by converting it into simple form i.e glucose. It is because glucose easily enters into our blood and provide instant energy.
