A student is sitting in class drinking a 16.9 fl oz bottle of Arizona tea (the size that you get from the deli). The student isn’t doing any activity, so the student’s body doesn’t need the sugar right away. What happens to all the sugar?

Answer:

The sugar is stored as glycogen in the students body

Explanation:

The food we consume contains sugar molecules (carbohydrate) that is broken down via respiration to synthesize energy (ATP). However, the sugar is not always utilized at once as the excess is stored as a carbohydrate called GLYCOGEN in our liver cells or muscle.

According to this question, a student is sitting in class drinking a 16.9 fl oz bottle of Arizona tea. The student, however, is not doing any activity and so his/her body does not need the sugar right away. This means that the body will store the sugar as GLYCOGEN until it is needed.
