That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
Glycogen is the body's storage form of glucose. It is a polysaccharide, which means it is made up of multiple glucose molecules linked together. When glucose levels in the body are high, excess glucose is converted into glycogen and stored in the liver and muscles. This stored glycogen can be broken down into glucose when the body needs energy, such as during periods of fasting or intense exercise. Glycogen serves as an important energy reserve in the body, allowing for a steady supply of glucose to be released when needed.
