A. Glycogen metabolism traps glucose within liver cells and increases storage of glucose in the form of glycogen. These processes decrease blood glucose levels. B. Glycogen metabolism traps glucose within liver cells and increases storage of glucose in the form of glycogen. These processes increase blood glucose levels. C. Glycogen metabolism releases glucose within liver cells and increases storage of glucose in the form of glycogen.
When it is needed for energy, glycogen is broken down and converted again to glucose. Glycogen phosphorylase is the primary enzyme of glycogen breakdown. For the next 8â12 hours, glucose derived from liver glycogen is the primary source of blood glucose used by the rest of the body for fuel.Glucagon, another hormone produced by the pancreas, in many respects serves as a countersignal to insulin.or the next 8â12 hours, glucose derived from liver glycogen is the primary source of blood glucose used by the rest of the body for fuel.
