Glycogen is formed in the liver during the absorptive state. Glycogen formation is called glycogenesis, which takes place depending on the demand for glucose and ATP. If both are present in relatively high amounts, then the excess of insulin promotes the glucose conversion into glycogen for storage in the liver and muscle cells.

The Basic Steps of Endocytosis
The plasma membrane folds inward (invaginates) forming a cavity that fills with extracellular fluid, dissolved molecules, food particles, foreign matter, pathogens, or other substances.
The plasma membrane folds back on itself until the ends of the in-folded membrane meet. This traps the fluid inside the vesicle. In some cells, long channels also form extending from the membrane deep into the cytoplasm.
The vesicle is pinched off from the membrane as the ends of the in-folded membrane fuse together. The internalized vesicle is then processed by the cell.
Answer:
active; prokaryotes
Explanation:
Active transport can be defined as the movement of molecules across cell membranes against a concentration gradient, i.e., from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration. Group translocation is a specialized type of active transport observed in prokaryotic cells. In group translocation, the transported substance is chemically modified during its movement, thereby the cell membrane becomes impermeable to this substance once it is within the cell. In bacteria, the phosphotransferase system is a type of group translocation that uses phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) as a source of energy to transport sugar molecules into the cell.

An electronic pulse oximeter, which can be clipped on the bridge of the nose, forehead, on the earlobe, or to the tip of finger, determines the oxygen concentration in arterial blood. Hemoglobin is the protein complex in blood that is responsible for carrying oxygen around the body. The pulse oximeter actually measures the concentration of hemoglobin in the blood and determines oxygen concentration from this value.
