An endocrine gland P is located below the stomach in the human body. The gland P secretes a hormone H. The deficiency of hormone H in the body leads to a rise in blood sugar, due to which a disease D is caused.
Answer:
P = Pancrease
H = Insulin
D = Diabetes
Explanation:
An endocrine gland P (Pancrease) is located below the stomach in the human body. This can be proved as
in digestion when food passes to Duodenum from stomach through sphincter muscle, then in duodenum pancreatic juices (Succus entericus) is secreted by pancrease.
Thus the endocrine gland P is Pancrease.
The pancrease secretes the hormone H (Insulin) . Since pancrease is an heterocrine gland it secretes the hormone Insulin and Glucagon. The endocrine part of pancrease is Islets of Langerhans where Alpha cells are for Glucagon and Beta cells are for Insulin .
Thus hormone H is Insulin.
Insulin reduces the sugar level in blood while Glucagon increases the blood sugar level. Both act as feedback mechanisms.
But according to question,the condition is for deficiency of hormone H which leads to rise in blood sugar level, thus here Insulin is the responsible hormone.
Excess of blood sugar level cause Diabetes.
Hence the disease D is Diabetes.
