Excess glucose taken up by the liver is converted to?

Excess glucose taken up by the liver is converted to glycogen in a process called glycogenesis. Glycogenesis occurs when blood glucose levels are high, such as after a meal. During glycogenesis, glucose is converted into glycogen and stored in the liver. This process helps to maintain normal blood glucose levels and provides a source of energy that can be used during times of fasting or low blood sugar.
