Question
which conversion is controlled by insulin?
glucose to atp
glucose to glycogen
glycogen to glucose
glycogen to lactic acid
Insulin is a hormone that helps regulate blood sugar levels. When blood sugar is high, insulin signals cells to take in glucose. In the liver and muscles, insulin promotes the conversion of glucose to glycogen (glycogenesis) for storage. Glucose to ATP is part of cellular respiration (not directly controlled by insulin). Glycogen to glucose (glycogenolysis) is controlled by glucagon. Glycogen to lactic acid occurs in anaerobic conditions (not regulated by insulin).
