Answer:

Glycogen is produced by animals while starch is produced by green plants

Explanation:

Following are the differences between starch and glycogen-

1. The structure of starch is larger as compared to that of glycogen. Glycogens has one molecule while starch has two molecules of glucose

2. Glycogen is produced by animals in their liver, muscles, brain, uterus etc. therefore it is also known as animal starch while starch is produced by green plants.  

3. Glycogen has only branched structure while starch has both branched and chain structure.

<span>Correct, starch is found in plants and glycogen in animals. BUT, glycogen is found in all animal cells, not just muscle cells. Glycogen is present in the highest amounts in both muscle and liver cells, where it appears as large granules</span>

The hormone vasopressin stimulates the kidneys to retain water.

Vasopressin or antidiuretic hormone is secreted by the posterior pituitary gland and acts on the nephron tubules which increase the reabsorption of water, thus decreasing water content in urine while increasing that of blood.

The increase in water concentration in the blood elevates blood pressure as well as blood volume which makes the urine concentrated.

It regulates the tonicity of body fluids and therefore, in response to hypertonicity stimulates the kidneys to reabsorb solute-free water and return it to the circulation from the tubules of the nephron, thus restoring the tonicity of the body fluids toward normal.
