The correct answer is C. Insulin.
Insulin is a hormone that is produced by the pancreas. It is essential for the uptake of glucose by cells in the human body. Insulin helps to regulate blood sugar levels by promoting the uptake of glucose from the bloodstream into cells. This process is known as glucose uptake.
GH (growth hormone) is a hormone that is produced by the pituitary gland. It is responsible for the growth and development of the body. GH does not play a role in the uptake of glucose by cells.
TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone) is a hormone that is produced by the pituitary gland. It stimulates the production of thyroid hormones by the thyroid gland. Thyroid hormones play a role in the regulation of metabolism, but they do not play a role in the uptake of glucose by cells.
Cortisol is a hormone that is produced by the adrenal glands. It is involved in the body’s response to stress. Cortisol does not play a role in the uptake of glucose by cells.
