Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Insulin reduces the body’s blood sugar levels and provides cells with glucose for energy by helping cells absorb glucose. When blood sugar levels are too low, the pancreas releases glucagon. Glucagon instructs the liver to release stored glucose, which causes the body’s blood sugar levels to rise.
Detailed explanation-2: -During periods of hyperglycemia (i.e., after meal ingestion), whereas insulin secretion is increased, glucagon secretion is reduced. Insulin promotes anabolism through facilitation of glucose transport in skeletal muscle and adipose tissue and stimulation of hepatic glycogen synthesis (41, 124).
