What is the name of the polysaccharide that is used for the storage of energy in a human liver?
Glycogen.
Glycogen stored capacity in muscle and liver?
The form of glucose used for storage in animals is glycogen. This is mostly made in the liver and/or muscle cells. The form of storage used in plants is starch.
What polysaccharide can be used to generate glucose?
Glycogen
What is the sugar used in glycolysis?
glucose or glycogen
What does glycogen look like?
stuck together and can be used for energy
What carbohydrate is used in the liver for energy storage?
glycogen
How is glycogen present in the muscle cell?
Glycogen is the storage form of glucose in the muscle cell. Glycogen can be used for energy.
What is the name of the polysaccharide that is used for the storage of energy in a human liver?
Glycogen.
What is the difference between liver glycogen and muscle glycogen?
Liver glycogen has low glycogenin content as compared to muscle glycogen.. liver glycogen responds to glucagon but muscle glycogen responds to catecholamines.. liver glycogen is used for the maintenance of blood glucose levels, but muscle glycogen is used for the supply of energy to the muscles liver glycogen can be completely broken down to glucose because of the presence of glucose 6 phosphatase, which does not occur in the muscles
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.
If Glycogen used to store energy in the liver and muscle tissue is an example of which type of molecule?
Carbohydrate
Glycogen stored capacity in muscle and liver?
The form of glucose used for storage in animals is glycogen. This is mostly made in the liver and/or muscle cells. The form of storage used in plants is starch.
Oil immersion is used as a medium between the specimen and the oil immersion objective lens why?
Oil immersion is a technique used to increase the resolution of a microscope.
How is joint elasticity increased?
Joint mobilization and stretching of soft tissues is a common technique used to increase joint elasticity
What polysaccharide can be used to generate glucose?
Glycogen
What is the sugar used in glycolysis?
glucose or glycogen
What is Glycogen used for?
Glycogen is "Animal Starch" analagous to Plant Starch (polymerized glucose) - a form of chemical energy storage used by animals and fungi.
