Answer:

The correct answer is d. glycogen

Step-by-step explanation:

Carbohydrate loading is a very common practice in athletes. It consists of eating carbohydrate-rich food specially before doing exercise. This practice maximizes the stored quantities of glycogen- polysacharide of storing of glucose- in muscle and liver.
