A 30-year-old healthy woman is undergoing an oral glucose tolerance test. After a catheter is inserted into an arm vein, she is given a drink containing 75 g of glucose. A blood sample is taken every 20 minutes and assayed for glucose and insulin concentrations. Twenty minutes after she drinks the glucose solution, which of the following biochemical findings would be expected? Answer Choices Correct answer Your answer A. Fatty acids in adipose tissue are mobilized B. Hepatic glycogen synthesis is activated C. Hepatic glycolysis is stimulated D. Hepatic ketone synthesis is increased E. Kidney gluconeogenesis is stimulated The answer is B!! in liver insulin has these actions: 1. increases glucose uptake 2. increases glycogen synthesis (glycogen synthase) 3. increases glycolysis (phosphofructokinase, pyruvate dehydrogenase) 4. increases fatty acid synthesis insulin in fat tissue: 1.increases glucose uptake 2. increases triacylglyceride synthesis insulin in skeletal muscle: 1. increases glucose uptake 2. increases glycogen synthesis (glycogen synthase) 3. increases glycolysis (phosphofruktokinase, pyruvate dehydrogenase) Ragarding to the things that I wrote (you can check them out in HY histology ) Why answer C is wrong? Can someone help?
