Type of hormone secreting cell that secretes glucagon?
The alpha cells of the pancreas are the source of release glucagon.
What hormone causes liver cells to release glucose?
The hormone glucagon stimulates the liver to release glucose into the blood when glucose levels are low.
What hormone does the pancreas release in response to high concentration of blood sugar?
That would be the peptide hormone called "Glucagon". (GLOO-kuh-gone)
What triggers the release of glucagon?
A decrease in blood sugar levels would trigger the secretion of glucagon. The glucagon would raise the blood sugar levels through release of glucose from the glycogen stored in the liver.
Which hormone facilitates the release of glucose from liver during a fasting state?
Glucagon.
What pancreatic hormone release is stimulated during the post-absorptive state?
glucagon
What hormone secretes glucagon?
Glucagon is a hormone, I guess you meant "What gland secretes glucagon"The gland that secretes glucagon is PancreaThis hormone is absorbed by the body and turned into sugar to increase glucose in the blood. A blood glucose level below 80 is considered hypoglycemic and is very dangerous for diabetics, therefore must be treated with glucagon or glucagen.
What endocrine glans release glucagon?
Pancrease produces the hormone.It is also an exocrine gland.
What chemical does the pancreas release?
The pancreatic beta islets produce insulin. Alfa cells produce glucagon. Insulin and glucogon produce a homeostatic method to produce normal blood glucose levels.
Which of these is a humoral stimulus for hormone release?
calcium
Suckling is important stimulus for release?
Oxytocin
What hormone is secreted when blood glucose is high?
insulin is secreted in response to high blood sugar.
