Question 4Cushing's disease is a form of secondary hypercortisolism caused by a benign pituitary tumor. What would be the effect on the following hormone levels?ⒸA. Low CRH and ACTH levels combined with elevated cortisolB. Low CRH and cortisol levels combined with elevated ACTHC. Low ACTH and cortisol levels combined with elevated CRHD. Low cortisol levels combined with elevated CRH and ACTHOE. Low CRH levels combined with elevated ACTH & cortisol

Beta cells in the pancreatic islets secrete insulin into the bloodstream. Amino acid absorption and protein synthesis are increased. Body cells respond by increasing the rate of glucose uptake into target cells. Body cells will increase the conversion of glucose into glycogen. There is an increase in the breakdown of fat into fatty acids in adipose tissue.
