BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -Glycogen is the reserve polysaccharide in the body and is mainly comprised of hepatic glycogen. Glycogen is synthesized in the liver and muscles. -D-Glucose combines to form glycogen continuously.

Detailed explanation-2: -Linear glycans are the most abundant polysaccharides in nature (in terms of quantity) because of the enormous quantity of cellulose existing as the main structural component of the cell walls of higher land plants.

Detailed explanation-3: -When the body doesn’t need to use the glucose for energy, it stores it in the liver and muscles. This stored form of glucose is made up of many connected glucose molecules and is called glycogen.

Detailed explanation-4: -Glucose is an important source for energy and glycogen is its cellular storage form, which is most abundant in liver and muscle. Glycogen is found in the cytoplasm in the form of granules ranging from 10 to 40 nm in diameter, the so-called particles, which are typical for muscle cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -Glycogen is a homopolysaccharide found in the liver and muscles of animals, where it is used to store energy.
