Answer 2

"(b) They are also known as roughage" is not true about fats.

Fats:

• Fat is typically defined as an ester of fatty acids or a combination of such compounds, most frequently those that occur in living things or in food, in the fields of nutrition, biology, and chemistry.
• Fats contain a higher percentage of C and H and a lower percentage of O than carbohydrates. This is why fats produce more energy than carbohydrates.
• Dietary fiber or roughage is the portion of plant-derived food that cannot be completely broken down by human digestive enzymes. Therefore, roughage is another name for fiber, and not fats.
• Examples of food rich in fats include milk, cheese, butter, cream, ghee

Hence, the correct answer is (b) They are also known as roughage
