yes it does
Fat is the long term energy storage medium for most animals. Glycogen is the short term storage medium. Glycerol is the backbone of triglycerides.
The body converts glycogen to fat for long-term energy storage through a process called lipogenesis. When there is excess glycogen in the body, it is converted into fatty acids and stored in fat cells for later use as energy.
Glycogen is a multibranched polysaccharide that serves as a form of energy storage in animals and fungi. In humans, glycogen is made and stored primarily in the cells of the liver and the muscles, and functions as the secondary long-term energy storage (with the primary energy stores being fats held in adipose tissue).
Glycogen is stored in the liver and muscles, and is second to fats as long-term energy storage.
Glycogen is the primary long-term energy storage molecule in humans. It is mainly stored in the liver and muscles and can be broken down into glucose to provide energy when needed. Additionally, adipose tissue (body fat) serves as a secondary long-term energy store in humans.
The liver converts excess energy-containing nutrients, such as carbohydrates, into glycogen for short-term energy storage. When glycogen stores are full, the liver then converts excess nutrients into triglycerides for long-term energy storage as fat.
Carbs and fats can be used as long term storage and are sometimes converted from glucose.
A cell uses molecules like glycogen and triglycerides for long-term energy storage. Glycogen is stored in the liver and muscles, while triglycerides are stored in adipose tissue.
Glucose. Stored in the precursor form glycogen.
Glucose. Stored in the precursor form glycogen.
Glycogen (made up the macromolecule carbohydrates)
Animals have molecules that can store energy for short term and long term periods of time. Animals use carbohydrates as short term storage and Lipids as long term storage.
