The carbohydrates, which includes:
- monosaccharides (e.g. glucose, fructose, galactose), individual sugar monomers
- disaccharides (e.g. sucrose, lactose, maltose), two sugar monomers
- oligosaccharides (e.g. raffinose, stachyose, lactosucrose, maltotriose), three to nine sugar monomers
- polysaccharides (e.g. starches, celluloses, glycogen, chitin, xylan), ten or more sugar monomers

What is produced in the hydrolysis of glycogen?
It is the conversion of glycogen from a non-reducing sugar to a reducing sugar by splitting all of its glycosidic bonds to produces numerous glucose molecules
What is meant by saying glucose molecules are the building blocks of carbohydrates?
The complex carbohydrates (cellulose, starch, and glycogen) are polysaccharides composed of chemically bonded glucose molecules.
Animals store energy in a polymer composed of many glucose molecules called?
glycogen
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.
Glycogen to glucose?
Glycogen is a storage of energy within the body, and glucose is the primary form of energy. So for example, if your body requires glucose to survive, when it has plentiful amounts. Your body converts glucose into glycogen for storage. However, if your body has low amount of glucose within it. Your body will rely on the storage of glycogen to break down into its components and use the glucose for fuel.
What you expect to get if you hydrolyze a glycogen molecule?
glucose molecules because glycogen is stored glucose formed from glucose linkages
The chemical process of building glycogen from glucose molecules?
well, you have those glucose molecules and then the enzyme "glycogen synthase" comes in and linkes the glucose molecules by a redox reaction in which water is formed
Which of the following enzymes is not required to breakdown glycogen into glucose-6-phosphate molecules for further metabolism?
All of these enzymes are necessary in the breakdown of glycogen into glucose-6-phosphate molecules.
What is produced in the hydrolysis of glycogen?
It is the conversion of glycogen from a non-reducing sugar to a reducing sugar by splitting all of its glycosidic bonds to produces numerous glucose molecules
The polysaccharide in muscles containing multiple glucose molecules is named?
Glycogen
What is the carbohydrate that is found in abundance in mammalian blood?
Glucose
The Storage form of glucose in muscles is called?
Glucose in animals is stored as glycogen. Glycogen is a polymer of glucose subunits attached with alpha (1-4) glycosidic linkages to link the individual glucose molecules, and alpha (1-6) linkages to create branch points for larger branched molecules. It is very similar to plant's energy reserve macromolecule - starch.
What is a Highly branched arrangement of glucose molecules found in liver and skeletal muscle cells?
Glycogen Glycogen is storage form of glucose in the liver and skeletal muscles of animals.
Glucose molecules entering skeletal muscle fibers are trapped when converted to?
glycogen
What molecules do mammals use to store extra glucose as what plants use?
glycogen
What is the subunits of glycogen?
i think glucose ..it convert into glycogen by the help of glycogen
What is meant by saying glucose molecules are the building blocks of carbohydrates?
The complex carbohydrates (cellulose, starch, and glycogen) are polysaccharides composed of chemically bonded glucose molecules.
