Solution

The correct option is C Insulin
Insulin is a peptide hormone produced by beta cells in the pancreas. It regulates the blood sugar level. When there is high blood glucose level in blood, insulin is secreted by beta cells. Insulin injection is given to control blood sugar in people, where the body does not make insulin and therefore cannot control the amount of sugar in the blood.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
