Question

  1. glycogen is stored in:

○ heart, liver
○ kidneys, muscles
○ muscles, liver
○ liver, thyroid

  1. the amount of glycogen stored depends on activity level.

○ true
○ false

  1. oligosaccharides are considered dietary fiber.

○ true
○ false

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  1. Glycogen is mainly stored in the liver and muscles. The liver stores glycogen to maintain blood - glucose levels, and muscles store it for their own energy needs during activity.
  2. Higher activity levels lead to more glycogen being broken down for energy and also can stimulate more glycogen synthesis when replenishing energy stores, so the amount of glycogen stored depends on activity level.
  3. Oligosaccharides are not considered dietary fiber. Dietary fiber is mainly composed of non - digestible polysaccharides, while oligosaccharides are shorter - chain carbohydrates and have different physiological functions.

Answer:

  1. Muscles, liver
  2. True
  3. False
