Why are cereals considered an energy-giving food group?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because they contain a high proportion of carbohydrates

Cereals such as rice, wheat, maize and millet are rich in starch, a complex carbohydrate. During digestion, starch is broken down into glucose, which cells use to release energy for movement, work and essential body processes. Cereals may also provide protein, fibre, vitamins and minerals, but their major energy contribution comes from carbohydrates. Therefore, option C is correct.
