Question

A)explain the mechanisms of why plasma insulin concentration decreases during exercise. B) Since insulin is decreasing during exercise, would you also expect that the uptake of glucose by working muscle (from blood) to also decrease? Explain mechanistically why or why not? C) Based on what you know about glucose homeostasis, would you recommend that an athlete supplement glucose 20 minutes before the start of a 1- mile run? why or why not?

Step 1

This energy is primarily derived from glucose and fatty acids. As the demand for energy increases, the body releases hormones such as adrenaline and cortisol, which stimulate the breakdown of glycogen (stored glucose) in the liver and muscles. This leads to an Show more…
