Why glucose molecules are not stored in monomeric form?

  1. Glucose changes the pH of cytoplasmic fluid.

  2. Glucose cannot be dissolved in cytoplasmic fluid.

  3. Glucose molecule increases the osmolarity of the cell.

  4. Glucose molecule decreases the osmolarity of the cell.

  5. Glucose molecules degrade rapidly.
