Question

the breakdown of glycogen (an energy - storage compound) is an example of a(n) ____________ reaction. multiple choice exergonic endergonic exchange synthesis equilibrium

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Exergonic reactions release energy. Glycogen breakdown releases stored - energy, making it an exergonic process. Endergonic reactions require energy input. Exchange reactions involve the transfer of atoms or groups between molecules. Synthesis reactions build larger molecules from smaller ones. Equilibrium reactions are in a state where the forward and reverse reaction rates are equal.

Answer:

A. exergonic
