D. Prolactin-Milk production in mammary glands.

Answer

A

Explanation

Gluconeogenesis is the process of synthesis of glucose from non-carbohydrate sources such as fat and protein, insulin promotes glycogenesis, i.e., it enables the liver and muscles to convert glucose into glycogen and to store it. It also enables the tissues to take up and use glucose as a source of energy this lowers the blood-glucose level.
