I found the whole exercise on the internet. These are the options:
<span>"a. Blood glucose levels are maintained within an adequate range.
b. Fat reserves are built.
c. Glycogen is formed.
d. Glucose is broken down in the liver."
</span>
Correct answer: "a. Blood glucose levels are maintained within an adequate range."
Blood glucose levels are maintained by the breaking down firstly of glycogen in the liver, and then when this is gone, glycogen from the skeletal muscles is used and broken down into glucose. Never in this period, glycogen is being formed but it is rather the opposite. After all the glucose storage is consumed, fat is then also used to keep the levels of glucose stable and is never built.

Phosphofructokinase catalyzes the phosphorylation of fructose 6‑phosphate to fructose 1,6‑bisphosphate in glycolysis. Fructose 1
Airida [17]

Answer:

Fructose 2,6‑bisphosphate (F26BP) activates phosphofructokinase‑1 (PFK -1) and inhibits fructose 1,6‑bisphosphatase (FBPase)

Explanation:

Fructose 2,6‑bisphosphate (F26BP) is a metabolite that is produced with an increase in glucose, hence increasing the availability of fructose-6-phosphate. With, the increased concentration of F26BP, it increases the affinity of PFK- 1 to fructose-6-phosphate, thereby activating glycolysis which enhances the catabolism of glucose. In contrast, F26BP inhibits the activity of  fructose 1,6‑bisphosphatase (FBPase), hence inhibiting gluconeogenesis. Gluconeogenesis (formation of glucose) will not be need since there is the presence of glucose in the system.

In summary, fructose 2,6‑bisphosphate (F26BP) reciprocally controls the enzymatic activity of  phosphofructokinase‑1 (PFK -1) and fructose 1,6‑bisphosphatase (FBPase); it inhibits gluconeogenesis by inhibiting the enzyme, FBPase and activates glycolysis by activating the enzyme PFk -1
