Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Glycogenesis is the process of converting glucose into glycogen, which is stored in the liver and muscles as a source of energy for later use. Gluconeogenesis is the process of producing glucose from non-carbohydrate sources, such as amino acids and fats, while glycogenolysis is the breakdown of glycogen into glucose for immediate energy. Therefore, choices A, C, D, and E are not the best choices for the conversion of glucose into glycogen.
