Reserve food material is a reserve of lipids, carbs, or, less commonly, proteins in cells and tissues that serve as significant energy stores that can be released and used for ATP synthesis anytime the organism requires it.

Explanation:

  • Fats or complex carbohydrates like Starch can be used as reserve food supplies. Glycogen, a multibranched polymer, is the reserve food material of fungi.
  • When you add an iodine solution to glycogen, it turns reddish. It is plentiful as a reserve food material in the muscles and liver of animals. It's also known as animal starch because of its function, which is similar to that of starch in plants.
  • Glycogen is found in blue-green algae, slime moulds, bacteria, and fungus, and serves as a reserve food source.
  • Enzymatic activity breaks it down into glucose, which is then absorbed.
