Glycogen is formed when many glucose molecules are bonded together, making it a complex carbohydrate. It is a short-term energy storage molecule that can be quickly broken down into glucose when energy is needed. Glycogen is primarily stored in the liver and skeletal muscles, making it easily accessible to provide energy to these tissues when needed. Therefore, all of the given properties apply to glycogen.
