Answer:
the correct answer is B)8-14
Explanation:
By using acetal connections to connect C #1 and C #6, the branches are created. While branches in amylopectin are spaced 12–20 glucose units apart from each other, they are 8–10 glucose units apart in glycogen.
Glycogen has a structure similar to that of amylopectin, with the exception that only one in 30 monomers of amylopectin have the branching alpha-1,6 links.
One of two types of energy reserves, glycogen is used for short-term storage, while the other kind is triglyceride storage in adipose tissue (body fat), which is used for long-term storage. Glycogen is predominantly produced and stored in the liver and skeletal muscle cells of humans.
hence Glycogen structure includes a branch between the glucose units 8-14.
