Which one of the following hormones is not involved in sugar metabolism?

Options

  2. BInsulin
  3. CGlucagon
  4. DCortisone

Correct answer

A. Aldosterone

Step-by-step solution

Corticoids, which regulate the balance of water and electrolytes in our body are called mineralocorticoids. Aldosterone is the main mineralocorticoids in our body. It is formed from zona glomerulosa. Aldosterone acts mainly at the renal tubules and stimulates the reabsorption of Na+ and water and excretion of K+ and phosphate ions. Thus, aldosterone helps in the maintenance of electrolytes, body fluid volume, osmotic pressure and blood pressure.
