Animals, like bears, hedgehogs, and frogs, hibernate during the cold winter months to conserve energy. Hibernation allows them to survive for long periods of time without needing to eat. Their bodies get nutrients and energy during hibernation by burning stored fat. In order for hibernation to work, the animal would need to eat a lot of what biomolecule first?

• Carbohydrates

• Lipids

• Protein
