If a person uses up his or her reserve supply of glycogen and still does not eat, sugar comes from the muscle.
Although only liver glycogen directly contributes to the release of glucose into circulation, maintaining a healthy blood glucose concentration is one of the glycogen's key functions. Since skeletal muscles lack glucose 6-phosphatase, they are unable to release glucose, and muscle glycogen primarily serves as a local energy source for activity rather than a source of fuel to keep blood glucose levels stable while fasting.
In fact, the breakdown of muscle glycogen into lactate allows for its delivery to the liver, where it participates in the maintenance of euglycemia through the process of gluconeogenesis (Cori cycle).

<span>Some mutations don't have any noticeable effect on the phenotype of an organism. This can happen in many situations: perhaps the mutation occurs in a stretch of DNA with no function, or perhaps the mutation occurs in a protein-coding region, but ends up not affecting the amino acid sequence of the protein.</span>
The correct answer is nephron.
<span>
The nephron consists of Bowman’s capsule ( where blood is initially filtered ) and glomerulus which is a tuft of capillaries. Bowman’s capsule and a glomerulus together form the renal corpuscle. The renal tubule extends from the capsule and it consists of proximal convoluted tubule (selective reabsorption), a loop of Henle (establishes a salt gradient) and distal convoluted tubule (selective reabsorption). </span>
