Detailed explanation-1: -Glycogen is a polysaccharide of glucose. Animals use glycogen to store energy. It is stored in the liver and the muscles to be used when needed.

Detailed explanation-2: -Carbohydrates are produced as monosaccharides (glucose or fructose) in the process of photosynthesis. Glucose is stored as polysaccharide-starch in plants and glycogen in animals. The animals store glycogen in liver and muscles.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plants store carbohydrates in long polysaccharides chains called starch, while animals store carbohydrates as the molecule glycogen. These large polysaccharides contain many chemical bonds and therefore store a lot of chemical energy.

Detailed explanation-4: -Carbohydrate can be stored as glycogen mainly in skeletal muscles or the liver; fat is manly stores as triacylglycerol in adipose tissue. With filled glycogen stores, glucose can be the substrate for de novo lipid synthesis and stored in adipocytes, muscles, or the liver and cause insulin resistance.
