The correct option is B Fat
Fats are a type of lipids. They are one of the main macronutrients. Fats are a wide group of compounds whose basis is in long-chain organic acids, called fatty acids. More particularly fats are esters of such organic acids formed with the alcohol glycerol. Fats and other lipids are broken down in the body by enzymes called lipase, produced in the pancreas.
