Question

Starch and glycogen are different in that only one of them

Answer 1

Answer:One if them which is starch is made from plants alone and the other Glycogen is made from animals.

Explanation:

Glycogen and starch are a great sources of carbohydrates.

While Glycogen is found only in animals and created by the liver , muscles brains and stomachs, Starch, is solely found in green plants and staple foods.

Glycogen has only one molecule while the starch has double molecules.

Considering thier structure, glycogens are highly branched out while starch consists of moderately branched components.

Answer 2

Complete question:Starch and glycogen are different in that only one of them

a. is a polymer of glucose.b. contains ribose.c. is made in plants.d. is an energy storage molecule.

Answer: the correct option is C ( is made in plants)

Explanation:

Glycogen is a polysaccharide which is the storage form for glucose and a good source of energy for sudden, strenuous activity. It is a polymer of glucose which is composed of glucose alpha linkages.It acts as the secondary long-term energy storage. Muscle glycogen is quickly converted into glucose by muscle cells and liver glycogen that converts into glucose for use throughout the body which includes the central nervous system. Glycogen is produced by animals and is equally known as animal starch.

Starch on the other hand is equally a polysaccharide. It is the storage form of carbohydrates for plants. Starchy foods are an important source of energy. After they are eaten, they are broken down into glucose, which is the body's main fuel, especially for our brain and muscles. Therefore starch IS MADE FROM PLANTS is the correct option.
