Lots of energy (starches, glycogen, and cellulose). AKA CARBS!
Cellulose - one long chain. Very strong.
Glycogen and Starch - bind to water easily.
Starch is slightly branched and glycogen is very branched. |

| Why does glycogen store more? |
|
Definition
| Stores more because the body doesn't have to pump out water. Very compact. |
