18
Q

Produced by the pancreas, lowers blood sugar levels by promoting glucose uptake into cells.

19
Q

Also from the pancreas, raises blood sugar levels by stimulating the breakdown of glycogen stores in the liver.

21
Q

Released by the adrenal glands, helps mobilize energy during stress situations, impacting carbohydrate metabolism.

22
Q

produced by the pituitary gland, stimulates protein synthesis and cell division, impacting overall growth and development.

A
