Glycogen is stored in muscle tissue and the liver.
Glycogen are found principally in the liver. Glycogen is a polymer of glucose residues linked by α-(1,4)- and α-(1,6)-glycosidic bonds. A second major source of stored glucose is the glycogen of skeletal muscle. , muscle glycogen is not generally available to other tissues, because muscle lacks the enzyme glucose-6-phosphatase.
adipose tissue, fat, or glycogen
Carbohydrates are absorbed and converted into glucose. The glucose can be stored as glycogen in the liver and the muscle tissue. If these are full the glucose will be converted into fat and stored.
Excess glucose in the body is stored in the liver and muscles as glycogen. Once these glycogen stores are full, any additional glucose is converted into fat and stored in adipose tissue for long-term energy storage.
Glycogen is called a polysaccharide because it is composed of long chains of glucose molecules bonded together. It serves as a primary form of energy storage in humans, particularly in the liver and muscle tissues. When energy is needed, glycogen can be broken down into glucose to be utilized by the body.
No. It is stored as fat in adipose tissue.
stored as glycogen in skeletal muscle
Glycogen is stored primarily in the cells of the liver

Glucose is stored in the body as glycogen. It is stored in the liver and in muscle tissue until it is needed, then the hormone glucagon - 'turns-the-sugar-on'- and releases the glycogen as glucose into the bloodstream.
yes & it is primarily stored in the cells of the liver & the muscles being held in adipose tissue
Amino acids are stored in the body primarily in muscle tissue.
adipose tissue, fat, or glycogen
The three macronutrients of the human are carbohydrates, proteins and fats. FAT: stored as adipose tissue and a small amount is stored in the muscle. PROTEIN: used as the building material of muscles and organ tissue - no "storage" per se. CARBS: stored as glycogen in the muscles and liver. Glycogen storage is limited and can only provide 1600 - 2000 calories when needed.
Glucose is stored in the liver and muscles in the form of glycogen. When blood sugar levels are high, excess glucose is converted to glycogen for storage. This stored glycogen can be broken down back into glucose when needed for energy.
