Degree of Specificity = (1- ( [Glucose] Detected / [Monosaccharide] Present ) ) x 100%

Front

What hormone lowers blood glucose?

Back

Insulin

Front

What hormone increases blood glucose?

Back

Glucagon

Front

What happens when the blood has too much glucose.

Back

- Receptor: Pancreas Alpha cells detect excess glucose

- Control Center: Pancreas releases insuline

- Effector: Cells take more glucose & Liver converts glucose to glycogen

Front

What happens when the blood has too little glucose.

Back

- Receptor: Beta cells in the pancreas detect the lack of glucose.

• - Control Center: Pancreas releases Glucagon

• - Effecto: Liver converts glycogen to glucose and sends it to the blood
