The role of insulin as it relates to body fat storage is that the pancreas releases insulin which informs the fat cells to absorb sugar or glucose. The cells in the body use the energy from the sugars stored in the body’s fat. So insulins role is to tell the fat cells to absorb sugar which will allow the body to use the fat as a form of energy.

<h3>Answer:</h3>

Insulin inhibits the breakdown of fat cells and stimulates the creation of body fat.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Insulin directs muscle and fat cells to take in glucose. Cells will either take in this glucose to obtain energy from it or convert the glucose to fat for long-term storage.

Let me know if you need any further explanation, I would be happy to help!

How does the brain work differently at different stages in our lives?
Rudiy27

Throughout life our brains undergo more changes than any other part of the body. These can be broadly divided into five stages, each profoundly affecting our abilities and behaviour.

Gestation.....Part 1 of our special feature looks at how a good prenatal environment is needed to make the best out of the growing brain.

Childhood.....Part 2: Life experiences in these early years help shape our emotional well-being, but neglect or harsh parenting may change the brain for good.

Adolesence......Part 3: Teenagers are selfish, reckless, irrational and irritable, but given the cacophony of construction going on inside the adolescent brain.

Adulthood.......Part 4: The peak of your brain’s powers comes at around age 22 and lasts for just half a decade – but there is an upside to the ageing brain.

Old Age......Part 5: Not everyone ages in the same way, but what’s the difference between a jolly, intelligent oldie and a forgetful, grumpy one? And can we improve our chances of becoming the former?
