Question

what will most likely happen if a person does not consume the minimum daily requirement of carbohydrates?
the body will break down chitin from the bones.
the body will break down glycogen from the liver.
the body will break down glucose from the blood.
the body will break down galactose from the pancreas.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Chitin is not stored in bones and is mainly found in arthropod exoskeletons and fungal cell walls. Glucose in the blood is already in a usable form and not broken down further in this context. Galactose is not stored in the pancreas. Glycogen is the storage form of glucose in the liver. When carbohydrate intake is insufficient, the body breaks down glycogen (stored in the liver and muscles, but liver glycogen is more relevant here as it can be released into the bloodstream) to maintain blood glucose levels.

Answer:

The body will break down glycogen from the liver.
