Energy in polysaccharides is stored in the chemical bonds between atoms. When these bonds are broken during metabolic processes, energy is released. Protons are sub - atomic particles within the nucleus and not where energy in polysaccharides is stored. Energy is not stored inside individual hydrogen or carbon atoms in the context of polysaccharide energy storage.
