Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When blood glucose levels decrease, both glucagon and glucocorticoids are released. Glucagon signals the liver to break down glycogen stores into glucose and release it into the bloodstream, while glucocorticoids stimulate the breakdown of proteins and fats to provide additional glucose. Insulin, on the other hand, is released when blood glucose levels are high and signals cells to take up glucose from the bloodstream.
