Difference between Carbohydrate and Glycogen

Carbohydrate vs. Glycogen

A carbohydrate is a biomolecule consisting of carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) atoms, usually with a hydrogen–oxygen atom ratio of 2:1 (as in water) and thus with the empirical formula (where m may or may not be different from n), which does not mean the H has covalent bonds with O (for example with, H has a covalent bond with C but not with O). Glycogen is a multibranched polysaccharide of glucose that serves as a form of energy storage in animals, fungi, and bacteria.

Similarities between Carbohydrate and Glycogen

Carbohydrate and Glycogen have 22 things in common (in Unionpedia): Adenosine triphosphate, Amylopectin, Blood sugar level, Carbohydrate, Chitin, Claude Bernard, Digestion, Energy, Food energy, Fungus, Gluconeogenesis, Glucose, Glucose 6-phosphate, Glycemic index, Glycolysis, Glycosidic bond, Insulin, Metabolism, Pentose phosphate pathway, Plant, Polysaccharide, Starch.

Adenosine triphosphate

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a nucleotide that provides energy to drive and support many processes in living cells, such as muscle contraction, nerve impulse propagation, and chemical synthesis.

Food energy

Food energy is chemical energy that animals (including humans) derive from their food to sustain their metabolism, including their muscular activity.

Glycemic index

The glycemic (glycaemic) index (GI) is a number from 0 to 100 assigned to a food, with pure glucose arbitrarily given the value of 100, which represents the relative rise in the blood glucose level two hours after consuming that food.

Glycolysis

Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that converts glucose into pyruvate and, in most organisms, occurs in the liquid part of cells (the cytosol).

Glycosidic bond

A glycosidic bond or glycosidic linkage is a type of ether bond that joins a carbohydrate (sugar) molecule to another group, which may or may not be another carbohydrate.
