What is the smallest polysaccharide?
glycogen
What carbohydrate is stored in the liver?
Glycogen in form of glucose.
What do Animal store carbohydrates as?
Animals store carbohydrates as glycogen. Glycogen is a multibranched polysaccharide of glucose.
What type of polysaccharide is found in potatoes?
Starch is found potatoes, not Glycogen. Glycogen is the plant equivalent of animal glycogen. A potato has starch but no glycogen; muscle cells have glycogen but no starch. The starch we eat is broken into glucose in the stomach/small intest and then reassembled in the muscle cells as glycogen.
Why is glycogen useful?
Glycogen is the source of energy in muscles
Why glycogen gives red colour with iodine?
When Iodine is added to amylose, the helical shape of the unbranched polysaccharide traps Iodine molecules, producing a deep blue-black complex. Amylopectin, cellulose, and Glycogen react with iodine to give red to brown colors. Glycogen produces a reddish-purple color.
Is a grasshopper Antenna branched or unbranched?
Unbranched!
What is the structural carb found in plants?
Glycogen, another polymer of glucose, is the polysaccharide used by animals to store energy. Excess glucose is bonded together to form glycogen molecules, which the animal stores in the liver and muscle tissue as an "instant" source of energy. Glycogen The Glycogen Molecule
What is the smallest polysaccharide?
glycogen
What is a flask-shaped gland with unbranched ducts?
exocrine glands
What is a conical root in a tooth?
It is an "unbranched" root, which has a single prominence.
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
How many hydrogen atoms are in an unbranched alkene with one double bond and 5 carbon atoms?
There are 10 hydrogen atoms in an unbranched alkene with 1 double bond and 5 Carbon atoms
What are the unbranched chains that make up most lipids?
fatty acids
What do fungi store their carbohydrates?
Glycogen same as the animals kingdom
What is glycogen cardiomyopathy?
glycogen cardiomyopathy
Which enzymes are required for glycogen breakdown?
glycogen phosphorylase, glycogen debranching enzyme, phosphoglutomutase
