Answer;

-Glycogen

The organic molecule called glycogen is formed of branched chains of sugar units.

Explanation;

-Glycogen is a branched polysaccharide of glucose that serves as a form of energy storage in humans, animals, fungi, and bacteria.

-In humans, glycogen is made and stored in liver and muscle cells. Muscle cell glycogen is broken down into glucose, and liver glycogen is broken down into glucose as a circulating energy source glucose for use by the body.

-Glycogen is accumulated in response to insulin and broken down into glucose in response to glucagon. It plays a major role in maintaining the blood-glucose levels, which is vital since some organs in the body such as the brain purely depend on glucose for energy.

Consider the mRNA wheel. mc022-1.jpg Which amino acid is coded for by the mRNA codon UAA? start codon stop codon Leu Asn
Temka [501]
Attached is an example of a mRNA wheel.

The codon UAA codes a stop codon. The mRNA wheel is read by starting to choose from the four letters at the centre the one that is the first in the codon. Then, on that quarter of the circle, choose from the four letters, the second in the codon. Repeat again the process for the 1/16 part you chose previously choosing now the last letter in the codon. You are now able to identify what is coded by the mRNA codon.
