Detailed explanation-1: -Glucagon triggers your liver to convert stored glucose (glycogen) into a usable form and then release it into your bloodstream. This process is called glycogenolysis.
Detailed explanation-2: -Insulin allows the cells in the muscles, fat and liver to absorb glucose that is in the blood. The glucose serves as energy to these cells, or it can be converted into fat when needed. Insulin also affects other metabolic processes, such as the breakdown of fat or protein.
Detailed explanation-3: -Glycogenolysis is the enzymatic process of breakdown of glycogen in liver and muscles. Insulin hormone inhibits glycogenolysis in liver cells and muscles and serves as anabolic hormone. The glycogen phosphorylase or also termed s phosphorylase is mainly regulates the rate of glycogenolysis in liver and muscles.
