🌟 DETAILED EXPLANATION
🧬 What is Glycogen?
Glycogen is a polysaccharide made of glucose units. It serves as the primary short-term energy storage in animals.
🏷️ Where is Glycogen Stored?
Liver: Regulates blood glucose levels by releasing glucose during fasting.
Muscles: Provides energy during intense physical activity.
⚡ Why Glycogen is Temporary Storage:
Glycogen is easily broken down into glucose when energy is required. For long-term energy storage, the body relies on fats.
Note: ATP is the immediate energy currency, but it is not a storage molecule.
