Insulin and Glucagon

Vedclass · Answer

(D) Insulin and Glucagon are antagonistic hormones that regulate blood glucose levels.$1$. Insulin is secreted by the $\beta$-cells of the Islets of Langerhans in the pancreas and acts to lower blood glucose levels by promoting the uptake of glucose into cells.$2$. Glucagon is secreted by the $\alpha$-cells of the Islets of Langerhans and acts to increase blood glucose levels by stimulating glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis in the liver.$3$. Because they have opposite effects on blood glucose concentration,they are considered antagonistic.
