Question

Which of the following carbohydrate is used in the liver for energy storage?

• A. Starch
• B. Cellulose
• C. Glycogen
• D. Glycerol

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

Glycogen

A starch molecule is the storage form of carbohydrate in the plants.

Cellulose is found in the cell wall of the plant cell.

Three molecules of fatty acids along with one molecule of glycerol leads to the formation of triglycerides, also known as fats or oils.

Glycogen is the carbohydrate that is used in the liver for energy storage. It gets converted to glucose whenever the body feels lack of energy.

So, the correct option is 'Glycogen'.
