Solution

The correct option is D Cortisol and glucagon
Glucagon is a peptide hormone and plays an important role in
maintaining the normal blood glucose levels. The adrenal cortex secretes many hormones, commonly called as corticoids. Both cortisol, particularly glucocorticoid and glucagon stimulate gluconeogenesis. They are not antagonistic.
