Expert Solution
Step 1

Insulin is a key hormone responsible for checking and balancing the levels of glucose in the blood. It is produced by the pancreas. Glycogenesis is promoted by insulin. It also promotes lipogenesis.

The common effects of insulin are 

  • Insulin facilitates the uptake of glucose into muscle cell. 
  •  Promote carbohydrate metabolism
  •  increase the rate of glycolysis in muscle cell and adipose tissue. 
  • increase the rate of glycogen synthesis 
  • promote lipid metabolism.
  • it increase the rate of protein synthesis in muscle, adipose tissue, liver and other tissue.
