Solution

The correct option is B II and III
Glycogen is also homopolysaccharide of D-glucose and serves as an energy storing molecule in animals as glucose as storage material can increase the osmotic pressure of storage cell enormously. Proteins do not serve as energy storage molecule. Fat and oil are storage lipids and are derivatives of hydrocarbon that produce enormous energy upon oxidation. Thus, the correct answer is B.
