Answer:

Explanation:

→ Beta cells secrete insulin. When the concentration of blood glucose rises (after eating, for example), beta cells secrete insulin into the blood. Insulin stimulates the liver and most other body cells to absorb glucose. Liver and muscle cells convert the glucose to glycogen (for short‐term storage), and adipose cells convert the glucose to fat. In response, glucose concentration decreases in the blood, and insulin secretion discontinues (through negative feedback from declining levels of glucose).Alpha cells secrete glucagon. When the concentration of blood glucose drops (during exercise, for example), alpha cells secrete glucagon into the blood. Glucagon stimulates the liver to release glucose. The glucose in the liver originates from the breakdown of glycogen and the conversion of amino acids and fatty acids into glucose. When blood glucose levels return to normal, glucagon secretion discontinues (negative feedback).

Hey mate here is your answer...

As we all know that Glucagon and Insulin both are the hormones secreted by the Pancreas.... they both maintain the Blood Sugar Level in our body...

When Insulin become decrease or increase then Glucagon will helps to make it stable in the body and the Vice Versa...(The same is done by the Insulin)

Hence we can conclude that Both Glucagon and Insulin are interdependent on each other...

I hope it will help you...if yes the please mark it as Brainliest...
