Question
Chapter 21, Problem 21.86CP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The storage of excess energy as glycogen or triacylglycerides should be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Adenosine triphosphate ATP: The main job of ATP is to store energy and release it when cell is in need of energy.
Hydrolysis: The reaction in which chemical compound is breakdown in presence of water is termed as hydrolysis. Here water serves as one reactant.

Sometimes, ATP is referred to as the “energy-storage molecule.” The cell does not actually store energy as a lot of extra ATP but as glycogen or triacylglycerides. Why do you suppose this is the case?
Glucose can be used to produce ATP in which of the following cellular processes?
a.) Lipolysis
b.) Deamination
c.) Aerobic cellular respiration
d.) Gluconeogenesis
Which of the following processes generates the most ATP? (Account for the no. of ATP)
a. ) Citric Acid Cycle
b.) Fatty Acid oxidation
c.) Glycogenolysis
