Answer..

The production of pancreatic hormones, including insulin,somatostatin, gastrin, and glucagon, play an important role in maintaining sugar and salt balance in our bodies. Primary hormones secreted by the pancreas include: Gastrin: This hormone aids digestion by stimulating certain cells in the stomach to produce acid.

harshitsinghunnnao: ok
harshitsinghunnnao: functions..of insulin
harshitsinghunnnao: Insulin helps control blood glucose levels by signaling the liver and muscle and fat cells to take in glucose from the blood. Insulin therefore helps cells to take in glucose to be used for energy. If the body has sufficient energy, insulin signals the liver to take up glucose and store it as glycogen.
harshitsinghunnnao: function of glucagon
harshitsinghunnnao: Glucagon's role in the body is to prevent blood glucose levels dropping too low. To do this, it acts on the liver in several ways: It stimulates the conversion of stored glycogen (stored in the liver) to glucose, which can be released into the bloodstream. This process is called glycogenolysis.

¤ Pancreas is a large elongated gland located behind the stomach.

¤ Pancreas produces important hormones that help maintain normal levels of glucose (sugar) in your blood.

Hormones produced by the pancreas include glucagon, insulin, somatostatin, and pancreatic polypeptide.

Insulin and Glucagon are the two hormones secreted by pancreas.

1.Glucagon helps in elevating the amount of glucose in the blood while insulin decreases the level of glucose in the blood stream.

2.When levels of sugar in your blood declines, your pancreas produces glucagon, which stimulates the liver to produce more glucose.

3.Insulin helps to lower sugar levels in your blood.
-This important hormone aids in the transport of glucose into your different cells.

4.Insulin helps in converting glucose into glycogen, which is stored in your liver for future use.
