    I believe it is A. Glucose

    Explanation:

    The liver is a very active organ that performs different vital functions. In Greek mythology, Prometheus steals fire from Zeus and gives it to mortals. As a punishment, Zeus has part of Prometheus's liver fed to an eagle every day. Since the liver grows back, it is eaten repeatedly. This story illustrates the high proliferative rate of liver cells and the vital role of this organ for human life. One of its most important functions is the maintenance of blood glucose. The liver releases glucose by degrading its glycogen stores. This reserve is not large, and during overnight fasting glycogen reserves fall severely. Glycogen stores in the liver correspond to 6% of its mass. On the other hand, glycogen stores in the muscle correspond to 1% of muscle mass but represent three to four times the amount found in liver, since by mass we have more muscle than liver. However, only the liver supplies the blood with glucose since it has an enzyme that make it possible for glucose molecules to be transported across cell membranes.
