The answer is the first one: Glycogenolysis.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Glycogenolysis: This is the correct answer. Glycogenolysis is the process of breaking down glycogen into glucose, which results in the release of stored glucose into the bloodstream. This process occurs primarily in the liver and muscle cells and is crucial for maintaining blood glucose levels during fasting or between meals.

  2. Glycogenesis: This is incorrect. Glycogenesis is the process of converting glucose into glycogen for storage in the liver and muscle cells. It is essentially the opposite of glycogenolysis and does not result in the release of glucose.

  3. Glycolysis: This is incorrect. Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that converts glucose into pyruvate, releasing energy in the form of ATP. It does not involve the release of stored glucose but rather the breakdown of glucose for energy production.

In summary, the process that results in the release of stored glucose is glycogenolysis.
