Solution

The correct option is A Insulin
Insulin helps in the conversion of glucose into glycogen in the body. Insulin allows glucose to be taken into the cells of your body where it is used in cellular respiration.
It also allows soluble glucose to be converted to an insoluble carbohydrate called glycogen which is stored in the liver and muscles.
Hence,option A is correct.
