Answer:

Most glycogen is stored in the liver.

Explanation:

Glycogen is a polysaccharide made up of thousands of glucose units and, like all polysaccharides, has no sweetened taste. Thus, glycogen is a macromolecule that is chemically considered as a polymer formed by the association of glucose monomers.

The main concentrated glycogen storage organ is the liver, where this substance represents approximately 10% of its weight. Another place where we can find it is in the skeletal striated muscles, representing an important element of energy support. The amount of glycogen present in the muscles is very small (0.7% of their weight), however, due to the large amount of muscles, the stored glycogen value is higher than the amount stored in the liver.

What is one change that would cause more water to evaporate from a stream?
Svetllana [295]

Evaporation

Explanation:

Evaporation is one change that would cause more water to evaporate from a stream.

Evaporation is a phase change in which liquid is changed into its gaseous form.

  • When a substance is heated from solid to liquid, it melts.
  • After melting, additional heat causes a phase change that allows for the liquid to change to gases.
  • In the water cycle, the sun provides heat energy that causes surface water in streams to be heated.
  • This leads to evaporation of the surface water into the atmosphere where they can be condensed to form precipitation.
