What else can I help you with?
Where is glucogen stored?
Glucose is stored as glycogen in muscles and liver.
What is the element symbol for glycogen?
Glycogen is not an element and it has no element symbol.
What are the three enzymes involved in the conversion of glycogen to glucose?
The process of "glycogenolysis" is the splitting of glycogen in the liver, which in turn produces glucose. Glucagon can be administered in emergency diabetic situations where sugar can't be taken orally.
What you expect to get if you hydrolyze a glycogen molecule?
glucose molecules because glycogen is stored glucose formed from glucose linkages
What is Glycogen used for?
Glycogen is "Animal Starch" analagous to Plant Starch (polymerized glucose) - a form of chemical energy storage used by animals and fungi.
Is glucogen an example of an isotope?
Glycogen is a compound. Anybody ever hear of glucogen.
Which gland converts glycogen to glucose?
Glucogen
How are glucose and glucogen related?
i think you mean glycogen...and they both have to do with sugar.
Where is glucogen stored?
Glucose is stored as glycogen in muscles and liver.
The liver store glucose in what form?
Glycogen is stored in the liver and muscles, and is second to fats as long-term energy storage.
Why does out body save glycogen instead of fat?
Glycogen can readily be converted by the human body cells into gucogen for energy. * correction to that answer just posted: the word is : Glucogen (forgot to type in the letter L)
Explain how the blood sugar gets back to normal from being low?
Your blood sugar will become low once you are fasting, and when that happens the alpha cells of the islets of Langerhans will allow glucogen to be release. Glucogen promotes the conversions of glycogen to glucose, which is released into the blood. As glycogen is converted to glucose in the liver the blood sugar level returns to normal.
Where is glucogen made?
Glycogen is made and stored in the liver and muscles. It is a form of stored glucose that can be broken down and released into the bloodstream when needed to maintain blood sugar levels.
What organelle converts glucose into glycogen?
The organelle responsible for converting glucose into glycogen is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER).SER is involved in glycogen synthesis in liver and muscle cells by synthesizing and storing glycogen granules in response to insulin signaling.
Where in the human body is the most sugar turned into glycogen?
liver
Why do we get instant energy from glucose?
its turned into glycogen and burned as energy
Starch is the stored carbohydrate in plants while is the stored carbohydrate in animals?
Glycogen is the stored carbohydrate in animals just as starch is the stored carbohydrate in plants. Both serve as a source of energy when needed by the organisms.
