An increase in blood glucose levels will lead to: All of these choices are correct. a breakdown of glycogen in the liver. increased insulin production. a breakdown of glycogen in the muscles. increased glucagon production.

increase in blood level of glucose will lead to increased insulin production.

Explanation:

Blood glucose level is the concentration of glucose (simple sugar) in the blood of humans and other animals. The body functions by regulating blood sugar level tightly as a part of body haemostasis.

Excess glucose intake in blood result to glucogen production (glycogenesis). A process whereby glucose is stored as glycogen in liver cells and skeletal muscles.

Blood glucose level is regulated by two hormones as part of haemostasis which are:

-Catabolic hormones (glucagon, cortisol and catecholamines)

-Anabolic hormones (insulin)

Glucagon responds to low level of blood glucose. It is secreted from alpha pancreatic cells. Once blood glucose level is low, it tells the tissues to generate more glucose by breaking down glycogen stored in skeletal muscles and liver cells.

Insulin is produced from beta pancreatic cells to respond to high level of glucose (simple sugar) in the blood. It lowers the level of blood glucose by informing the skeletal muscles and liver cells to take and store excess glucose as glycogen. Epinephrine gets the body muscles ready for 'fight and flight' response while cortisols generate the body fuel during stress.
