30. Which of the following is associated with insulin effect
upon blood glucose levels?
A. Increase in glycogen breakdown
B. Decrease in glycogen synthesis
C. Increase in gluconeogenesis
D. Decrease in fatty acid mobilization
The following is associated with insulin effect upon blood glucose levels;

16. Briefly describe the action of Insulin on carbohydrate metabolism, fat metabolism, and on protein metabolism. I.e. do es it promote (+) or discourage (-) the following? a. Glycogenesis (production of glycogen) b. Glycogenolysis (breakdown of glycogen) c. Glycolysis: using glucose for fuel inside cells d. Gluconeogenesis: Production of glucose by liver (usually from aa) e. Uptake of glucose into fat and muscle cells? f. Lipid synthesis: Production of Triglycerides in fat cells g. Lipid breakdown/mobilization of fat from adipocytes(breakdown...
Question 12 10 pts Insulin is released when blood glucose levels are . This causes increased absorption of glucose into cells by the transporter. This transporter has a Ky which allows rapid glucose uptake. Insulin promotes activity of to make glycogen for energy storage. Adipose tissues also increase energy storage by making from fatty acids.

An increase in plasma volume 2) One of the primary functions of cortisol during exercise is to a. stimulate protein synthesis b. regulate plasma glucose c. mobilize free fatty acids d. B and C e. All of the above 3) Which of the following ranges represents a normal fasting...

Liver glycogen synthesis increases Muscle glycogenolysis (glycogen breakdown) increases Liver gluconeogenesis decreases Insulin levels in the blood decrease Ketone body production in the liver is increased ..... Which of the following metabolic changes will occur in a typical human during 12 hours of fasting? (Select ALL that apply.) Liver glycogen synthesis decreases Liver...
20.Insulin acts to (a)Increase glucose utilization and storage (b)Increase fatty acid uptake and triacylglycerol storage in adipose tissue (c)Decrease lipolysis in adipose tissue (d)Increase net protein synthesis (e)All of the above
20. What happens when beta cells of the pancreas release insulin into the blood? glucose levels rise to a set point and stimulate glucagon release. b) Body cells take up more glucose. c) The liver breaks down glycogen to glucose. d) Alpha cells are stimulated to release glucose into the blood óth B and D are correct.

Which of the following describes an action of insulin? a) Inhibits gluconeogenesis b) Inhibits the synthesis of glycogen c) Promotes breakdown of adipose tissue
Which of the following statements about hormonal regulation of glycogen synthesis and degradation are correct? Multiple answers! A. Insulin increases the capacity of the liver to synthesize glycogen. B. Insulin is secreted in response to low levels of blood glucose. C. Glucagon and epinephrine have opposing effects on glycogen metabolism. D. Glucagon stimulates the breakdown of glycogen particularly in the liver. E. The effects of all three of the regulating hormones are mediated by cAMP.
