Answer 1

Answer:

burns glucose for energ

Explanation:

Insulin is a hormone made by the pancreas that allows your body to use sugar (glucose) from carbohydrates in the food that you eat for energy or to store glucose for future use. Insulin helps keeps your blood sugar level from getting too high (hyperglycemia) or too low (hypoglycemia).

Insulin helps control blood glucose levels by signaling the liver and muscle and fat cells to take in glucose from the blood. Insulin therefore helps cells to take in glucose to be used for energy. If the body has sufficient energy, insulin signals the liver to take up glucose and store it as glycogen

Having high levels, also known as hyperinsulinemia, has been linked to obesity, heart disease and cancer (1, 2 , 3 ). High blood insulin levels also cause your cells to become resistant to the hormone's effects
