After a meal that is high in carbohydrates, starch is converted into glycogen, a sugar storage molecule. The chart describes the stages a starch molecule goes through as it is metabolized.

Pathway of Starch to Glycogen during Digestion

Starting molecule End result of metabolism
Starch Broken down into maltose in the mouth
Maltose Broken down into glucose in the intestines and absorbed into the blood
Glucose Removed from blood; many glucose molecules are stored in the liver as a molecule of glycogen

Which process(es) are occurring in the cell to convert starch into glycogen?
only catabolism
only anabolism
both catabolism and anabolism
neither catabolism nor anabolism

Maltose Broken down into glucose in the intestines and absorbed into the blood.
Anabolism - forming large complex molecules.
