Glycogen is the main storage form of glucose in animals. Why is glucose necessary as opposed to simply keeping a high concentration of intracellular glucose ready for when the cell needs energy? Free glucose is cytotoxic O Glycogen has the highest energy capacity of any organic compound O To maintain osmotic balance Glucose precipitates out of solution in cellular conditions O None of the above Question 26 Suppose you incubated a sample of glycogen with debranching enzyme, transferase, orthophosphate and glycogen phosphorylase. What would be the approximate ratios of G1P to Glucose (G1P/Glucose)? O Not enough information O 10 O 100 4 25
