______ is a multibranched polysaccharide of glucose that serves as a form of energy storage in animals and fungi. (1) Cellulose (2) Glycogen (3) Pectin (4) Chitin

1 Answer

Answer :

(2) Glycogen Explanation: Glycogen is a multi branched polysaccharide of glucose that serves as a form of energy storage in humans, animals, and fungi. The polysaccharide structure represents the main storage form of glucose in the body. Glycogen is the analogue of starch, a glucose polymer that functions as energy storage in plants.
