Question

The effects of insulin include
A) Increasing glucose uptake by peripheral tissues, particularly fat and muscle
B) Increasing liver glycogenolysis
C) Increasing lipolysis

Accepted Answer

Insulin primarily promotes the uptake of glucose by peripheral tissues (like fat and muscle) to lower blood glucose levels and does not increase glycogenolysis or lipolysis; in fact, it inhibits these processes.
