Which of the Following Acts to Lower Blood Glucose Levels

Question

Which of the following acts to lower blood glucose levels?
A)glucagon
B)norepinephrine
C)insulin
D)parathyroid hormone

Accepted Answer

Insulin is the hormone responsible for lowering blood glucose levels by promoting the uptake of glucose from the blood into cells for energy production or storage. Glucagon and norepinephrine are hormones that increase blood glucose levels by promoting the breakdown of glycogen (stored glucose) in the liver and muscle cells. Parathyroid hormone plays a role in regulating calcium levels in the blood and bone metabolism but does not affect blood glucose levels.
