One should remember that the number of ‘ends’ in a glycogen molecule would be equal to the number of branches plus one. Glycogen is a branched polysaccharide made up of glucose subunits where the glucose molecules form a chain and are linked by α-1,4 linkage and the branch of glucose is linked to the main chain by α-1,6 linkage.  Hence, Option (d) is the correct answer.
