results in high blood glucose levels.
results in the accumulation of normal glycogen in muscle.
is the most common glycogen storage disease.
During prolonged exercise the source of energy for muscle changes in the order:
Fatty acids-glycogen-ATP-creatine P
Creatine P-ATP-glycogen-amino acids-fatty acids
Glycogen-fatty acids-amino acids-ATP-creatine P
Amino acids-fatty acids-ATP-creatine phosphate-glycogen
ATP-creatine P-glycogen-fatty acids-amino acids
Your help would be appreciated - I think 2nd question is the 2nd answer - results in liver damage and death before the age of 2 as a result of accumulation of insoluble glycogen
But I"m not sure about the rest- please help & explain if possible!
