Gluconeogenesis occurs in times of starvation, fasting, and low access to sources of glucose. This is the cells way of creating its own precursor when none is available, albeit at a high energetic cost (one cycle of gluconeogenesis can cost 6 ATP). Thus, it is untrue that gluconeogenesis occurs during high consumption of carbohydrates and fatty acids. Each other selection is true regarding gluconeogenesis.

During anaerobic conditions, lactate travels from the muscle to the liver via the bloodstream.

The Cori cycle comes into play during anaerobic conditions; where lactate from glycolysis travels from the muscle to the liver to be converted into glucose via gluconeogenesis. The glucose is then sent back to the muscle to be used for energy. Note that some of the lactate that is converted into glucose can be stored as glycogen in the liver, but glycogen is not transported from the liver to the skeletal muscle.
