No, humans are the only species to use DNA.

It is true for all vertebrates, but not for invertebrates.

No, mammals are the only organisms that use DNA for this purpose.

If you ate a samples of the different carbohydrates seen here, how would the available energy differ from each source and why?

All of the carbohydrates would produce about the same amount of energy, as they all have a large amount of oxygen atoms.

The simple sugars would have less energy than the complex sugars, because the molecules are smaller.

The simple sugars would have more available energy, because they are small molecules and are easy to break down.

The complex carbohydrates would produce the most energy, because they have a high C:H ratio and relatively little oxygen.

The carbohydrates seen here contain three common elements. They are

hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen.

carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and phosphorus.
