The correct option is A Increase glucose metabolism
The adrenal cortex is responsible for the production of three major classes of steroid hormones: glucocorticoids, which regulate carbohydrate metabolism; mineralocorticoids, which regulate the body levels of sodium and potassium. Thyroid hormone action and mechanisms mediate metabolic regulation, focusing on the interaction among the pathways that regulate lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, and the balance of energy storage and energy expenditure. Hence, both are responsible for carbohydrate or glucose metabolism.
