Vedclass · Answer

(C) The Islets of Langerhans are endocrine clusters in the pancreas. They contain $\beta$-cells that secrete insulin. Hypo-secretion (deficiency) of insulin leads to a condition where glucose cannot be effectively taken up by cells,causing blood glucose levels to rise significantly. This condition is known as hyperglycemia,which is a primary symptom of Diabetes Mellitus.
