Muscle is not directly related to the functions listed. Carbohydrates are the main source of quick energy for the body. Lipids (fats) are important for long-term energy storage. Proteins are involved in muscle growth and repair. Nucleic acids contain genetic information. Enzymes are proteins that facilitate chemical reactions in the body. Starch is a complex carbohydrate that serves as a storage form of energy in plants.
