Question
Chapter 11, Problem 21P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The structure of glycogen and starch needs to be compared.
Concept introduction:
Carbohydrates are available in various forms like starch, cellulose, glycogen etc. They all are polysaccharides which contribute as an energy source in plants and animals. The human body needs sufficient intake of sugar or glucose which is an energy source of human cells. Starch is a primary energy source of plant and animal whereas glycogen is secondary energy storage in animal cells.
