What does glucagen and insulin do to sugar?
Insulin acts as a key, if you will, that opens cells to allow them to absorb glucose in the blood stream so it may be used for cellular respiration. Glucagon (you had a typo I believe) operates when there is not enough glucose present in the blood stream. It is secreted by Alpha cells in the pancreas, and acts on the liver to have it break down glycogen (bunch of glucose molecules strung together) into glucose molecules, which are then secreted I to the blood stream. Insulin and glucagon are called antagonistic hormones, because they have opposite effects that keep the body at an optimal blood glucose level (granted there are no diseases/disorders in the body)
How does the changes help the body to maintain homeostasis?
Changes in the body help maintain homeostasis by allowing the body to regulate internal conditions like temperature, pH, and nutrient levels within narrow ranges. For example, if body temperature rises, the body responds by sweating to cool down. This dynamic process ensures that internal conditions remain stable despite external changes.
What hormone secretes glucagon?
The hormone that secretes glucagon is produced by the alpha cells of the pancreas. It works to raise blood glucose levels by stimulating the liver to convert stored glycogen into glucose and release it into the bloodstream when blood sugar levels are low.
