What Animals store glucose in the form of in liver and muscle cells?

Animals store glucose in the form of glycogen in their liver and muscle cells. Glycogen is a polysaccharide that serves as a readily accessible energy reserve, allowing for quick mobilization during periods of increased energy demand, such as exercise. When glucose is needed, glycogen can be broken down into glucose molecules through a process called glycogenolysis.
