What hormone promotes storage of glucose by the liver?
Insulin is the hormone that promotes the storage of glucose by the liver. It signals liver cells to take up glucose from the bloodstream and convert it into glycogen for storage.
What glands and organs are involved in insulin?
the organs involved in insulin are liver and liver muscle and the pancreas
Does insulin mobilize liver glycogen to yield glucose?
No, insulin stimulates the liver to produce glycogen from glucose. Glucagon mobilizes liver glycogen to yield glucose.
What is the substance that is transported by blood from the the liver and to the kidneys?
The substance that is transported from the liver to the kidneys is urea. Urea is produced in the liver during the breakdown of proteins and is transported through the blood to the kidneys for excretion in the urine.
Which organ destroys the insulin after it has its effect?
The liver and kidneys destroy insulin after it has its effect. The pancreas is the site of insulin production.
What steroid does the liver produce into bloodstream?
insulin
Does the liver store insulin?
As noted in the expert answer - the pancreas, not the liver, manufactures insulin. The pancreas sits in a space in the abdominal cavity near the liver. It is behind the stomach and a bit below the liver. The pancreatic duct from the pancreas joins up with the bile duct from the liver and gall bladder where the two ducts enter the duodenum (the first part of the small intestine that connects to the stomach) through the major duodenal papilla.
What does insulin cause the liver to change glucose into?
Insulin causes the glucose in your blood to enter the cells for energy. It does not cause the liver to change glucose into anything. Your liver does, however, store extra sugar in the form of glucagon.
What hormone affects the storage of glycogen in the liver?
Insulin
Are all sugars transported to the liver?
yes
Where is digested food transported for metabolism?
Liver .
How is insulin transported within the body to regulate blood sugar levels?
Insulin is produced by the pancreas and released into the bloodstream. It travels to cells throughout the body, where it helps regulate blood sugar levels by allowing glucose to enter the cells for energy. Insulin also signals the liver to store excess glucose as glycogen. This process helps maintain stable blood sugar levels.
