Title: Why does the catabolism of glycogen produce single glucose molecules more quickly than amylose? Post by: Midnightcharm on Sep 22, 2012 Let me re-phrase the question:
Why does the catabolism of glycogen produce single glucose molecules more quickly than the catabolism of amylose? Plz helpp!!

Post by: lethalheritage on Sep 22, 2012 Glycogen is part of the body`s internal energy source. Thus, it is only used when necessary and its decomposition needs to be done at urgent rates. Hence, a complex of enzymes gets involved in the catabolic process. Contrary to that, amylose will act on its own. It also gets activated when an external energy source is present.
