Explanation:

A covalent bond is formed when an element shares its valence electron with another element. This bond is formed between two non metals.

An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element and the element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element. This bond is formed between a metal and an non-metal.

Chlorine and potassium atoms form ionic bonds: Ionic bond is formed when there is complete transfer of electron from a highly electropositive metal to a highly electronegative non metal.  Electronegativity difference = electronegativity of chlorine - electronegativity of potassium = 3-0.8 = 2.2

Carbon atoms form non-polar covalent bonds with nitrogen atoms : Non-polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is no difference of electronegativities between the atoms.  Electronegativity difference  = electronegativity of nitrogen  - electronegativity of carbon= 3.0-2.5 = 0.5

Oxygen forms polar covalent bonds with phosphorus: A polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is a difference of electronegativities between the atoms.  Electronegativity difference = electronegativity of oxygen - electronegativity of phosphorous = 3.5- 2.19 = 1.31

Glycogen ________. Glycogen ________. forms the regulatory molecules known as enzymes serves as a structural component of human
jasenka [17]

Answer:

Glycogen in an important storage polysaccharide found in animal tissues.

Explanation:

Full question:

Glycogen ________

A) forms the regulatory molecules known as enzymes

B) serves as a structural component of human cells

C) helps to protect vital organs from damage

D) is an important storage polysaccharide found in animal tissues

E) contains the genetic information found in cells

Glycogen is a complex polysaccharide of glucose founded in humans, animals, fungi and even bacteria. In humans, the glycogen is made and stored in liver cells. In the center on glycogen molecule, there is a single protein called Glycogenin. It is a center of a big flower made of glucose molecules (please refer to the scheme attached - Glycogenin is red and the blue lines are glucose chains). Glycogen is also stored in skeletal muscle, red and white blood cells, in glial brain cells and kidneys but in a smaller amounts. It can be found in the placenta in pregnant women where it serves as a nutrient storage for embryo. In an adult, the liver weighs 1,5 kg and glycogen weighs about 120g in such a liver. After a meal, the level of sugar is rising and the insulin is being secreted. Insulin is a tool by which sugar is being delivered to the cells, like a food delivery. During this period, glycogen is being synthesized in the liver out of glucose residues. When the meal is digested, the sugar level is back to normal. When more energy is needed, glycogen from the liver is broken down by glycogen phosphorylase and the new sugar is released into the bloodstream.
