Detailed explanation-1: -Ans. (iv) Glycogen Explanation: Glycogen is a polymer of glucose found in lever, brain and muscles of animals.
Detailed explanation-2: -Abstract: Important glucose polymers to animals are glycogen, starch, and cellulose. The b-1, 4 glycosidic linkages of cellulose prevent it from being digested by constitutive enzymes.
Detailed explanation-3: -Starch is comprised principally of two glucose polymers, amylose and amylopectin. Both polymers are made up of d-glucose units in cyclic pyranose form, linked through glycosidic bonds between carbons 1 and 4 of adjacent glucose monomers (Figure 1).
Detailed explanation-4: -Inulin is not a polymer of glucose.
Detailed explanation-5: -So, the correct answer is ‘Glycogen’
