Target tissue of insulin is

  1. A
    Red Blood Cell
  2. B
    Kidney tissues
  3. C
    Small intestinal tissues
  4. D
    None of the above

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The primary physiological target tissues of insulin for metabolic glucose clearance and regulation are skeletal muscle cells, hepatocytes (liver cells), and adipose tissue (fat cells). These specific tissues contain high densities of specialized insulin receptors that trigger the expression of GLUT-4 transporters. Because none of these vital sites are listed among options A, B, or C, "None of the above" is the correct response.
