what is the advantage of storing gluose as glycogen in animals instead of as monomeric glucose ?

Options

A. Energy obtained from glycogen is more than that from the corresponding glucose monomers
B. Glucose present as monomers within the cell exerts more osmotic pressure than a single glycogen molecule , resulting in loss of water from the cells .
C. Glucose present as monomers within th cell exerts more osmotic pressure than a single glycogen molecule . Resulting in excess water within the cells
D. Glycogen gives more rigidity to the cells .

Answer

C

Explanation

Glucose is a monosacchharide and osmotically active molecule which increase osmotic present in cell so water enters in cell while glycogen is osmotically inert molecule does not change the osmotic pressure .
