To get energy from stored glycogen the body must first convert the glycogen into .?
To get energy from stored glycogen (in the liver), the body must first convert the glycogen into ATP. -JoshuaP
To get energy from stored glycogen the body must first concert the glycogen into?
To get energy from stored glycogen, the body must first convert glycogen into glucose. This process, known as glycogenolysis, breaks down glycogen into glucose molecules, which can then be utilized for energy production through glycolysis and cellular respiration. The resulting glucose can be used immediately for energy or stored as fat if in excess.
When you exercise, which stored fuel do you use first?
When you exercise, your body uses stored carbohydrates (glycogen) first for quick energy before tapping into stored fats for fuel.
What function does glycogen have in living things?
Glycogen is a stored sugar that is made available as the first energy source while exercising. It lasts for about 20 minutes. Then the body uses other sources of metabolism for energy. Glycogen is stored in the liver.
What is the first source of stored energy to be used during a period of fasting is?
During a period of fasting, the body first uses stored glycogen from the liver and muscles as a source of energy. Once the glycogen stores are depleted, the body starts breaking down fat reserves to produce energy through a process called lipolysis.
Is the only way your body can store energy from food is in the form of body fat?
False. Your body can store energy from food for future use in two ways: 1) as fat and 2) as muscle fuel (called glycogen). Its first priority is to fill its glycogen tanks, because glycogen is the body's primary source of energy for physical activity. Once your glycogen stores are filled and the rest of the body's energy needs are covered, all the extra energy from your food will be stored as body fat.
When a Pearson consumes less food than is required to meet body needs glycogen is converted into proteien?
This statement is not accurate. When a person consumes less food than is required, the body will first utilize its glycogen stores for energy. If glycogen stores are depleted, the body will then start to break down muscle tissue to convert amino acids into glucose for energy, not protein.
When fasting what does the body use first for energy?
Protein
How long does it take to lose weight by counting your calories?
This answer is a bit complicated. First you have to understand how your body stores and uses energy. When you take in more calories than you use in a day the extra energy is stored as fat. When you eat your body will refill it's reservoir with energy stored as glycogen. The glycogen is stored in your liver and in your muscles. When you exercise this is the first bit of energy that is used. After the glycogen is used up, your muscle energy stores are used. When that energy is used up, then your body switches to a new source of energy. Fat. This fat is broken down into energy, but it is a much more difficult process which requires alot of oxygen. That is some of the reason why your heart rate and respirations increase with exercise. These first two sources of glycogen and muscle energy will not net any weight loss at all. When you get into the third stage of exercise fat will begin to be burned. At this point your weight is being lost at the same exact time as the fat is being converted into energy. So this happens at the same time. Tit for tat. Weight for energy. But, you have to exercise for a prolonged period of time to reach the third stage of energy production.
What source of energy does an internal combustion engine use?
Chemical energy, stored in the gasolene or a similar substance. This, in turn, is first converted into heat.Chemical energy, stored in the gasolene or a similar substance.

The conversion of glycogen to glucose-1-phosphate is the first step in?
The conversion of glycogen to glucose-1-phosphate is the first step in glycogen breakdown, also known as glycogenolysis. This process is catalyzed by the enzyme glycogen phosphorylase, which cleaves off a glucose molecule from the glycogen polymer. Glucose-1-phosphate is then further converted to glucose-6-phosphate for energy production.
Where is energy stored and obtained by chloroplasts from sunlight?
Energy is absorbed by chlorophyll.Energy is stored first in ATP later in glucose.
