Solution
The correct option is D Both lipids and carbohydrates
Energy storage molecules are those molecules which store energy in the form of covalent chemical bonds. Some molecules like glycogen (carbohydrate) and triglycerides (lipids) are synthesized by the cells and they are stored for the later release of energy. So, the correct answer is "both lipids and carbohydrates".
