Carbohydrate

Cells in a person's body obtain glucose from the digestion of carbohydrate.

Carbohydrates are macronutrients that serve as the body's main source of energy. Carbohydrates are composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen molecules. Carbohydrate is broken down in the body to create glucose which is used by the muscles, brain and other important cells. Carbohydrates include; simple carbohydrates (such as table sugar and high-fructose corn syrup), and complex carbohydrates (starches such as wheat, rice, yam, bread, pasta, and potatoes).

starchy vegetables are high in carbohydrates.

starchy vegetables contain more carbohydrates than non-starchy vegetables.

explanation:

there are two primary categories of carbohydrates, essentially differentiated on the basis of their carbohydrate content (which is in the form of starch - a complex carbohydrate):

those vegetables which contain little amounts of starch are termed as non-starchy vegetables, and some examples include: artichokes, broccoli and bean sprouts.

vegetables high in their starch content are distinguished as starchy vegetables, and some examples include: potatoes, chickpeas and corn.
