The human body stores excess glucose as glycogen. The storage areas for glycogen are limited, therefore any carbohydrates that are consumed beyond that capacity is stored as fat, of which the body can store an unlimited amount.
excess sugar stores are stored as glucose. First blood sugar levels are increased, storage sites are also in the liver and glucose is stored in the muscles (these only have a limited capacity). The excess sugar has the same fate as fat, as it is stored as adipose tissue that has ulimated storage sites
Glucose is stored as as fat when it is in excess. When it is needed again glucagon activates the stored fat and allows it to be used by the body.
Many people have said to me that excess sugar is stored in the body as fat and that eating more sugar than what's necessary will result in an increase in body fat and thus weight.
Carbohydrates are absorbed and converted into glucose. The glucose can be stored as glycogen in the liver and the muscle tissue. If these are full the glucose will be converted into fat and stored.
Glycogen is the storage form for animals, starch for plants.
IntestinesCORRECTION:Muscles contain the most glycogen-- the storage form of glucose-- in the body. The liver comes next.
Distribution of carbohydrates in the human body is provision of energy to cells to facilitate all body processes. Carbohydrates are distributed in the form of glucose and when they are not used, they are stored as glycogen or fat.
it is a form of carbohydrates which is stored in the liver.it releases energy when the body needs it
Starch No, Starch is how plants store glucose. The human body stores glucose as glycogen.
glucose
Glycogen is a storage of energy within the body, and glucose is the primary form of energy. So for example, if your body requires glucose to survive, when it has plentiful amounts. Your body converts glucose into glycogen for storage. However, if your body has low amount of glucose within it. Your body will rely on the storage of glycogen to break down into its components and use the glucose for fuel.

It is stored in the form of glycogen.
The primary form of carbohydrate is glucose. It is also the preferred energy source of the body.
Glycogen is storage form of glucose in animals .Starch is the storage form of glucose in plants
Glucose is stored in the body as glycogen. Excess glucose in circulation is normally polymerized within the liver and muscles as glycogen, which is hydrolyzed to glucose as needed.
Glycogen is the storage form for animals, starch for plants.
