Glycogen is a homopolysaccharide formed by units of glucose and is sometimes referred to as animal starch. It can reach up to a molecular weight of 10 to the power 8 DA which corresponds to about 600,000 glucose molecules.
The function of glycogen is that it is the principal form in which glucose is stored in animals and is present in the liver, muscle (skeletal and heart muscle) and in lower amounts in nearly all the other tissues and organs.
Glycogen makes up about 10% of liver weight and 1% of muscle weight. Although it is present in higher a concentration in the liver, the total amount stored in muscles is much higher due the greater mass of the muscles as compared to the liver.

Your heart has four separate chambers that pump blood, two on the right side and two on the left.
2. When the ventricle relaxes, the aortic valve closes <em>to prevent blood from flowing back into the ventricle</em>. When the aortic valve is not working properly, it can interfere with blood flow and cause the heart to strain to send blood to the rest of the body.
3. In medicine, a person's pulse is a pressure wave caused by the expansion of the arteries as a result of the circulation of blood pumped by the heart.
4. Capillaries are tiny vessels that branch out from arterioles to form networks around body cells.
Capillaries are very tiny blood vessels — so small that a single red blood cell can barely fit through them.

Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are important parts of the carbon cycle. The carbon cycle is the pathways through which carbon is recycled in the biosphere. While cellular respiration releases carbon dioxide into the environment, photosynthesis pulls carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.
Lean women with a BMI less than 20 have an increased risks of preterm delivery, and deliver- ing a low-birth weight infant. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option or option "a". Similarly it is not good to gain excess weight while in the pregnancy stage, as the baby might grow at a larger proportion that required.
