Glycogen. They do so because any type of storage molecule must be insoluble whenever it comes in contact with water. Glycogen is also insoluble therefore it makes glucose easily storable in glycogen.

Animal cells store glucose as a polysaccharide called?
Glycogen
Is glucose found in both plant cells and animal cells?
Plants produce glucose by a process called photosynthesis. Photosynthesis uses water, carbon dioxide, and solar energy to build up glucose, which the plant stores in the form of long chains of starch.
What is the name of the molecule that is proein hormone that tells animal cells to store blood glucose as glycogen?
Insulin
Animal cells store excess sugar in the form of a polysaccharide called starch?
Starch is stored by plants.Animals' storing carbohydrate is glycogen.
What is the storage form of glucose used by animal cells?
The form of glucose used my plants is called starch, which is found in the cell wall of the plant, along with cellulose.
How do animal cells store glucose?
Once the body breaks down glucose it'll turn it into glycogen which stored in the muscles for about 2-3 hrs, however if u don't use it in that period the body will transformed it to triglyceride (body fat) and use later. Once ur body starts demanding energy it will retract glycogen or triglyceride and break it down and turn it into ATP.
What plant cells store glucose as a polysaccharide?
starch
What product of the photosynthesis process do plant cells store?
Main product is glucose. It is stored as glucose
What are beta cells?
Cells located in the pancreas that produces insulin. Insulin controls the amount of glucose in the blood and, when glucose levels spike, cause certain cells to 'suck up' the access glucose and store it.
What stores glycogen in a cell?
If your body does not have any use for the glucose, it is converted into glycogen and stored it in the liver and muscles as an energy reserve. Your body can store about a half a day's supply of glycogen. If your body has more glucose than it can use as energy, or convert to glycogen for storage, the excess is converted to fat.
Saclike oranelles that store materials?
Sack like organelles that store materials in a cell are called vacuoles. Vacuoles tend to be larger in plant cells then in animal cells.
In what form do animal fragments store glucose-containing?
Glycogen
