The long-chain carbohydrate present in animal tissue is glycogen. Glycogen serves as a primary energy storage form in animals, primarily found in the liver and muscles. It is a polysaccharide composed of glucose units linked together, allowing for rapid mobilization of glucose when energy is needed.
