@aliboo997

Insulin is responsible for glycogenesis and glucagon is responsible for gluconeogenesis.

Answer 7

Answer 8

alright, haha :)

Answer 9

Glycogenesis is the process of formation of glycogen from glucose and its antagonistic is gluconeogenesis.

Answer 10

ok, makes sense.

Answer 11

When blood glucose level rises then insulin catalyses the conversion of blood glucose into glycogen [the reaction occurs in liver] and when the blood glucose level drops then glucagon catalyses the conversion of stored glycogen into glucose. in this way a homeostasis is maintained.
