Each of many different human hormones can by itself raise the concentration of glucose in the blood. The reason for this is probably a metabolic quirk of the brain. To see this, consider that althou most human cells can produce energy from fats and proteins, brain cells can use only glucose.

B. The reason that many different hormones can each independently raise blodd blucose levels is prabably a metabolic quirk fo the brain.
