Excess carbs and calories are stored as fat.
No, carbohydrates are stored differently in plants and animals. In plants, carbohydrates are stored in the form of starch, while in animals, carbohydrates are stored as glycogen in the liver and muscles.
Starch is the storage form of carbohydrates in plants. In contrast, glycogen is the storage form of carbohydrates in animals.

Plants store energy in the form of carbohydrates through photosynthesis. When animals eat plants, they break down these carbohydrates through cellular respiration to release the stored energy for their own use.
The storage form of carbohydrates is glycogen, proteins are stored as amino acids, and lipids are stored as triglycerides in living organisms.
In plants, the major polymers (carbohydrates such as cellulose and starch) are stored in the form of starch granules in specialized plant organs like roots, tubers, and seeds. In animals, the major polymers (such as glycogen) are stored in the form of glycogen granules primarily in the liver and muscles for rapid energy release when needed.
Largely cellulose and starch.
CArbohydrates and lipids are the major energy reserves for our body. CArbohydrate is stores as glycogen in liver and muscles whereas lipids are stored in the form of saturated fats like cholesterol.
This is because animals and human have Enzyme amylase that can convert starch in simple sugar that can be used by it's cell to release energy. plant doesn't have the enzyme that convert glycogen into a form that can be utilized by it's body cells
of glycogen in the liver and muscles. Glycogen is a polysaccharide that serves as a readily accessible energy reserve for the animal when needed.
