Question

Which of the following is not a function of insulin?
A) Lowering blood glucose levels
B) Synthesis of protein
C) Hepatic gluconeogenesis
D) Fatty acid synthesis

Accepted Answer

Insulin promotes the uptake and utilization of glucose by cells, which results in lower blood glucose levels. It also stimulates protein synthesis and fatty acid synthesis, but it inhibits hepatic gluconeogenesis, which is the production of new glucose by the liver.
