The answer is C. Glucose, absorbed from food by our bodies, is saved as glycogen and fats when in excess and not being utilized. These reserves are stored to be used later during physical exercise. Living a sedentary lifestyle, therefore, causes the excessive accumulation of these storage reserves hence resulting in obesity.
