Glycogen is a storage of carbohydrate in the muscles, because that is the way the body is made. To access glycogen, the body needs to get into active mode.
Animals store carbohydrate in the form of glycogen. This is the secondary storage tissue in animals after adipose tissue. Plants store carbohydrates in the form of starch.
Glycogen
The carbohydrate energy storage molecule of animals is glycogen. Glycogen is a substance deposited in bodily tissues as a store of carbohydrates.
Glycogen is the main form of carbohydrate storage in animals, primarily in the liver and muscles. It serves as a readily available source of energy for the body during times of need when blood glucose levels drop.
Starch
Glycogen belongs to the carbohydrate group of food chemicals. It is a complex carbohydrate that serves as a storage form of glucose in animals, including humans. Glycogen is typically stored in the liver and muscles for energy.
Glycogen is stored in the liver and muscles, and is second to fats as long-term energy storage.
Carbohydrates are absorbed by the body and converted into glucose. The glucose can be stored as fat or as glycogen in the liver or the muscles. There is no short term storage of carbohydrates.
