Biomolecules
Glycogen is a polysaccharide. It is a polymer of D-glucose. It stores food in animals and human beings.
Glycogen and starch differ in the type of glycoside bond that joins the D(+) glucose monomers and the amount of chain branching. When the body needs glucose, enzymes break down to glucose.
