Verified step by step guidance

Begin by understanding the different forms of energy storage in the human body. The body stores energy in various forms, including glycogen, fats, and ATP.

Glycogen is a polysaccharide that serves as a form of energy storage in animals and humans. It is primarily stored in the liver and muscle tissues.

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and are not primarily used for energy storage. They can be converted into energy, but their main role is in protein synthesis.

Glucose is a simple sugar that is a primary energy source for cells. However, it is not stored in large quantities; instead, it is converted into glycogen for storage.

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the energy currency of the cell, used for immediate energy needs. It is not a storage form but rather a molecule that provides energy for cellular processes.
