Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Insulin and glucagon are hormones that regulate glucose metabolism in the body. Insulin promotes the uptake, storage, and utilization of glucose by the body's cells, whereas glucagon stimulates the breakdown of stored glucose (glycogen) in the liver, releasing it into the bloodstream for use as energy by the body's cells. Sodium, potassium, and calcium are controlled by different hormones and do not directly affect glucose metabolism.
