Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- Glucagon and insulin act synergistically to increase blood glucose. True or FalseTrue or False If a person intakes a large amount of water-soluble vitamins, the excess vitamins will be stored in liver for later use.True or false: When food comes in contact with chemosensilum on a house fly, the neurotransmitter/hormone serotonin is released into the hemolymph which stimulate the salivary glands to produce saliva.
- Briefly explain how glucagon and insulin keep balance of blood glucose levels? Please briefly explain at your own words.These two hormones have synergistic effects as they both stimulate glycogenolysis and increase glucose levels in the blood glucagon and epinephrine growth hormone and insulin insulin and epinephrine epinephrine and growth hormoneLeptin inhibits and ghrelin stimulates appetite. Is true or false
- True or false When insulin binds to its target cell it will eventually cause mRNA to be produced. When insulin binds to its target cell it will eventually cause cAMP to be produced. GH and GHRH are released from the anterior pituitary gland.Insulin regulates glucose uptake and breakdownIn muscle induces glucose into myocytes and gluconeogenesis there as well . true or falseWhile insulin levels are primarily regulated by blood glucose, other factors are also able to influence insulin levels. Briefly describe the major positive and negative factors.
