• B. Animals do not store much glycogen
• C. It is degraded by enzymes immediately after death
• D. Clinical death is not biological death

Answer 1

The correct option is A It is stored only in liver

Meat does not contains much of glycogen as all the excess glucose present in body is converted to glycogen and is stored in the liver.

Some of the glycogen is stored in muscle but is as less as $1-2\%$. Major portion, i.e., $100-120$gm of glycogen is stored in liver cells and are released and broken down when needed.
