Glycogenesis

Question

Glycogenesis
A) is also called glucose anabolism
B) can occur in liver cells
C) can occur in muscle cells
D) All of the above are true of glycogenesis.

Accepted Answer

Glycogenesis is the process of converting excess glucose into glycogen for storage. It is an anabolic process, meaning it builds larger molecules from smaller ones. This process can occur in both liver cells and muscle cells, and is therefore true for options B and C. Additionally, glycogenesis is another name for glucose anabolism, making option A true as well. Therefore, all of the above choices are true for glycogenesis.
