What is a polysaccharide that stores energy in your muscles and liver?
I believe its glycogen found in liver and muscles which is made of glucose to give us energy
What monomers make up glycogen?
Glycogen is made up of glucose monomers. These monomers are combine in alpha-1,4 linkages with alpha 1,6 linkages used to create branches. Glycogen also has a small protein component that is used to initiate the glycogen polymer called glyocgenin.
An example of a polysaccharide that is used for energy storage in humans is?
STARCH in plants. GLYCOGEN in animals.
Is a glycogen a lipid a carbohydrate or a protein?
No. According to our AP Bio book, Glycogen is a carbohydrate. 3 major types of lipids are fats, phospholipids and steroids (cholesterol is a type of steroid and is thus a lipid).
What is produced in the hydrolysis of glycogen?
It is the conversion of glycogen from a non-reducing sugar to a reducing sugar by splitting all of its glycosidic bonds to produces numerous glucose molecules
What type of organic molecule is glycogen?
Glygogen is made of glucose. So it is an organic compound.
What type of molecule is glycine?
carbohydrate is a macromolecule of glycogen
Is glycogen the most abundant organic compound on earth?
No. Cellulose
Which organic molecule is important for the storage of excess energy?
glycogen.
What class of organic compound is glycogen found in?
Carbohydrates. common table sugar is a disaccharide.
Starch cellulose and glycogen belong to what type of organic compounds?
uh amino acids
What is the most abundant organic compound and animal cells?
It is a polysaccharide the Glycogen.
Which organic compound is produced 13 fatty acid's molecules bonded to one glycerol molecule?
Glycogen
What organic macromolecule used for long term energy storage in animals?
Glucose. Stored in the precursor form glycogen.
Which group of organic moleculesincludes glycogen and glucose?
Glucose is an example of an organic compound that is classified as a monosaccharide. Other sugar molecules that are monosaccharaides are fructose and galactose.
One of the major classes of organic compounds?
The four groups of organic compounds are carbs, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. The four types of carbs are sugar, cellulose, glycogen, and chitin.
What occurs when digestion of organic molecules results in more energy-rich molecules than are immediately required by the animal?
The excess is stored as glycogen.
