I was doing random questions and this popped up:
http://www.mcatquestion.com/findquestion.php?arg1=417
Of the tissues listed below, which ones break down glycogen when stimulated by glucagon?
I. Liver
II. Muscle
III. Brain
A. I only
B. I and II
C. III only
D. I, II, and III
I am very confused why the answer is D (highlight the empty space to get the answer). I chose A pretty quickly, thinking I was right.
So apparently brains have glucagon receptors, but that's not the important point. I could have sworn from a practice test that muscles didn't have any glucagon receptors and thus did not respond to glucagon. Is this website wrong, or is my understanding wrong?
