Explanation:

Inhumans, glycogen is made and stored primarily in the cells of the liver and the muscles, hydrated with three or four parts of water.[3] Glycogen functions as the secondary long-term energy storage,with the primary energy stores being fats held in adipose tissue. Muscle glycogen is converted into glucose by muscle cells, and liver glycogen converts to glucose for use throughout the body including the central nervous system.
Foods containing unsaturated fats include avocado, nuts, and vegetable oils such as canola and olive oils. Meat products contain both saturated and unsaturated fats.
