The two primary places where glycogen is stored in the body are:

  1. Liver
  2. Muscles

  • Glycogen is stored in the liver so as to maintain blood glucose level
  • It is stored in the muscles in order to provide energy during long fast

Whenever the body needs energy, special enzymes breaks the glycogen into glucose which is transported to various parts of the body.

Generally, glycogen is a main source of energy for the body

<h3>What is glycogen?</h3>

Glycogen simply refers to polysaccharide of glucose. It serves and function as a form of energy storage

Show a diagram of how ions are formed when a sodium atom comes into close
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

The diagram is attached below.

Explanation:

when sodium and chlorine comes close together they form anion and cation. The compound formed is called sodium chloride.

Both atoms bonded together through ionic bond.

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.  

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

For example:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion.
