Both growth hormone and epinephrine increase the blood concentration of glucose.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Growth hormone and epinephrine are both classified as hormones that promote an increase in blood glucose concentration. Growth hormone acts primarily by stimulating the breakdown of glycogen (stored glucose) in the liver, while epinephrine acts by stimulating the release of glucose from liver and muscle stores, as well as promoting glucose production in the liver. Both of these hormones can contribute to the development of hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) in individuals with certain conditions, such as diabetes or insulin resistance.
