Question
Which of the following will release more energy on oxidation? Arrange them in ascending order.
- 1 gm of fat
- 1 gm of protein
- 1 gm of glucose
- 0.5 g of protein + 0.5g glucose

Solution
1 gm of fat < 1 gm of protein < 0.5 g of protein + 0.5g glucose < 1 gm of glucose
This means 1 gm of glucose will release more energy compared to any other in this group.
