What answer best describes glycogen?

Answer 1

Glucose a simple monosaccharide sugar, is one of the most important carbohydrates and is used as a source of energy in animals and plants. Glucose is one of the main products of photosynthesis and starts respiration. The natural form (D-glucose) is also referred to as dextrose, especially in the food industry.

Answer 2

Glucose is a 6-carbon sugar. It is the basic sugar that animals and plants break everything down into for energy (as both photosynthesis and cellular respiration are based on how many ATP molecules can be synthesized from how many glucose molecules).

Answer 3

Glycogen is "the animal starch". Is the storage polysaccharide of animals that is present in all animal cells but is most prevalent in skeletal muscle and liver tissues, where it occurs as cytoplasmic granules.

Answer 4

Glycogen is a polysaccharide (carbohydrate) that serves as a storage form of glucose in animals, including humans. It is primarily stored in the liver and muscles and can be broken down into glucose when energy is needed.

Answer 5

Glucose is a building block of carbohydrates. The best answer that describe glucose is " monosaccharide " .

Answer 6

The molecule that is best described as glucose has the chemical formula C6H12O6.

Answer 7

Glucose is a Monosaccharide. Monosaccharides are most basic units of carbohydrates, and they are monomers of carbohydrates.

Answer 8

Glycogen is a polysaccharide formed from glucose monomers; the role is to store energy in the organisms.
