Final answer:

Insulin prompts cells to use and store glucose, while glucagon stimulates glycogen breakdown for glucose release.


Explanation:

Insulin is released by cells in the pancreas to facilitate the uptake of glucose by muscle and fat cells, allowing them to use it for energy and storage. It also signals the liver to store glucose as glycogen. On the other hand, Glucagon is released when blood glucose is low, causing the breakdown of glycogen in the liver to release glucose into the bloodstream.
