Solution
The correct option is A Release of insulin Zinc is an important chemical compound found in our body which helps in the secretion of insulin. It improves the ability of insulin to bind to its receptors on cell membranes and transport glucose into the cells to be used as energy. Thus it helps in keeping the blood sugars out of the blood stream. When zinc concentration falls, there is reduction in insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity leading to diabetes.
