Solution

The correct option is A Glucagon
The correct option is B.
Glucagon is an extremely potent hormone released due to a drop in blood glucose. Glucagon acts on the liver to elevate plasma glucose, an action opposite to that of insulin. Glucagon promotes hepatic glycogenolysis and increases hepatic gluconeogenesis.
