A. Glycogen metabolism traps glucose within liver cells and increases storage of glucose in the form of glycogen. These processes decrease blood glucose levels. B. Glycogen metabolism traps glucose within liver cells and increases storage of glucose in the form of glycogen. These processes increase blood glucose levels. C. Glycogen metabolism releases glucose within liver cells and increases storage of glucose in the form of glycogen.
Sometimes, the glucose in our body runs low, or even is depleted.

Exercise, illness, and some dietary habits, can cause the glycogen stores to be depleted more quickly.
