Glycogenesis is the process by which glucose molecules are converted into glycogen for storage. This stored glycogen is mainly found in the liver and muscles, where it can be broken down later to provide energy when needed.  
So, since the question asks about converting glucose into glycogen for storage, **glycogenesis** is the correct process.

**Gluconeogenesis** is formation of glucose from non‑carbohydrate sources. **Glycolysis** is break down of glucose for energy.

Hence, glycogenesis is the correct answer as it is the pathway where excess glucose is converted into glycogen and stored mainly in the liver and muscles

Glycogenesis is the metabolic process in which **glucose is converted into glycogen** for storage. Glycogen is stored mainly in the **liver** and **skeletal muscles**. This process occurs when blood glucose levels are high.

I actually impressed by this poll, to understand Diabetes,Fatty liver diseases one should go through glycogenesis,gluconeogenesis and glycolysis.

I thought it was some kind of news feed. Shocked by seeing MCQ pattern. Intresting idea 👍🏻👍🏻
