Answer:

Hydrolyzing both starch and glycogen to glucose

Explanation:

Starch and glycogen are both forms of carbohydrates called "polysaccharide" found in the foods we consume. Polysaccharide are polymers that constitutes several monomeric units called monosaccharides. Monosaccharides are the forms in which the body can absorb energy.

Hence, starch and glycogen as polysaccharides must first be hydrolysed (broken down) into a monosaccharide called GLUCOSE in order to obtain energy for the body.
