Glycogen is present in all of the body except:
Correct answer: C. Blood
- A. Brain
- B. Heart
- C. Blood
- D. Muscle Tissues
Explanation
Glycogen is a form of stored glucose in the body, primarily found in the liver and muscle tissues. It serves as a readily accessible energy source during physical activity or between meals. While the brain and heart contain some glycogen, blood does not store glycogen; it functions as a transport medium for glucose and other nutrients. Therefore, the correct answer is blood, because glycogen is not stored there. The other options, such as the brain and heart, do have glycogen storage capabilities, albeit to varying extents.

About Biological Molecules
The chapter covers water's polarity and biological roles, carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids, including their monomers, bonds, structures and functions. It also distinguishes RNA from DNA and explains conjugated molecules such as glycoproteins, glycolipids and nucleoproteins, which combine organic molecules with a non-protein component.
