Starch is the stored carbohydrate in plants while is the stored carbohydrate in animals?
Glucogen. The precursor to glucose.
What type of carbohydrate is stored in fungi?

What are the Glycogen sources?
Any type of food does not contain glycogen. Starch and carbohydrate will become glucose after entering our body. The glucose is then converted into glycogen by insulin. For what purpose? To maintain the blood sugar level. If the blood sugar level decreases, glucagon will convert the glycogen into glucose again.
Is carbohydrate a type of wax?
Carbohydrate is not a wax.
How is carbohydrate stored in the liver and muscle?

What is the smallest unit any carbohydrate can be hydrolyzed to?
Glucose is the simplest monosaccharide or sugar and is the smallest unit any carbohydrate can be broken down to. It is the only carbohydrate the brain can use as fuel and the glucose is stored in the muscles and liver as glycogen which is a polymer of glucose.

How do the liver and skeletal muscles handle a carbohydrate overload?
It all depends on what you mean by an overload. If you eat many cookies, the carbohydrates you don't use right away are stored as fat. The liver and muscles are not directly affected.
What type of energy do muscle use and what form is it in?
Energy is stored as fat in the muscles.
