Answer: Glycogen

Explanation:

The energy in the human body is stored in the form of glycogen. In human beings the glycogen is stored primarily in the liver and muscle cell.

In liver the glycogen can make upto 5-6% of the organs fresh weight. and can store 100-120 grams of glycogen in it.

Glycogen is released slowly from the liver when the body is starving or the blood glucose is being consumed by the body.

Then there is a need that the stored glycogen is used by the rest of the cells.
