Solution

The correct option is B Glucose
Glucose acts as an instant source of energy. Animal cells store excess in the form of glycogen. The excess of glucose in the blood is converted to glycogen in the muscle cells. The process of formation of glycogen is known as glycogenesis. During the muscle exercise when extra energy is needed the glycogen is broken down to glucose and channelized into the bloodstream by glycogenolysis to provide instant energy.
So, the correct answer is option A.
