The correct answer is option D) Both A and C are correct.
Carbohydrates are the hydrate of carbon and they are large macromolecules made of carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O). They can be found as starch, cellulose, and sugars in food and living tissues.
Carrots also produce natural sugar, which provides energy for the plant to reproduce. This sugar is then delivered to the storage organs of carrots (the root). Then the sugar is transformed into starch because starch is non-soluble and hence it is easier to store it.
However, when plants need energy, this starch is converted back into sugar by the activity of an enzyme. Depending on how much sugar is still available, carrots and similar plants vary in sweetness.
