Glycogen is formed by the loss of water molecules along the length of the polymer chain as the glucose molecules are joined together.
<h3>How is glycogen formed?</h3>
Glycogen is formed by a process known as condensation polymerization. This involves the loss of -OH from one glucose molecule and the loss of H from another glucose molecule as the chain is formed.
Hence, glycogen is formed by the loss of water molecules along the length of the polymer chain as the glucose molecules are joined together.
