Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Insulin primarily promotes the uptake of glucose by cells, glycogen synthesis in the liver and muscles, and the synthesis of fats from carbohydrates and lipids. It does not promote gluconeogenesis (the production of glucose from non-carbohydrate sources) or glycogenolysis (the breakdown of glycogen to glucose); these processes are actually counteracted by insulin, as they increase blood glucose levels, which insulin works to decrease.
