Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Insulin controls the levels of glucose (carbohydrates) in the blood by promoting glucose uptake by cells and storage as glycogen in the liver and muscles. It also stimulates the conversion of excess glucose into fat. Glucagon, on the other hand, raises blood glucose levels by promoting the conversion of glycogen to glucose in the liver and stimulating the production of glucose from amino acids (proteins) and fats. Serotonin is not secreted by the pancreas and does not play a role in controlling fat, protein, or carbohydrate levels. Necon is not a hormone secreted by the pancreas.
