PhysiologyAnswer: 1) Induction of glucokinaseExplanation: Insulin enhances glucose uptake in the liver by inducing the synthesis of glucokinase, an enzyme that converts glucose into glucose-6-phosphate. This "glucose trapping" mechanism keeps intracellular glucose levels low and promotes further glucose entry into the cell.
