Line 1: Line 1:
-  * Because muscle tissue lacks glucose-6-phosphatase  +===Muscle glycogen cannot contribute to blood glucose.=== 
-  * so glucose-6-phosphate will not convert to glucose, + 
-  * instead glucose-6-phosphate undergoes glycolysis to produce ATP for muscle contraction.+  * Glucose-6-phosphatase converts glucose-6-phosphate to glucose  
 +  * Muscle tissue lacks glucose-6-phosphatase enzyme(this enzyme is present in liver) so it cannot convert glucose-6-phosphate to glucose 
 +  * Glucose-6-phosphate, which is release from muscle glycogen, will goes to liver and converted to glucose. 
 +  * So muscle tissue cannot directly contribute for blood glucose, it's need help of liver enzyme for coversion from glucose - 6 phosphate to glucose.  
 +  * Glucose-6-phosphate undergoes glycolysis in muscle tissue to produce ATP for muscle contraction
