What part of the digestive system produces insulin?
Insulin is not stored, the body makes it on demand. Also it is not part of the digestive system, rather it is a hormone regulating the amount of sugar in the blood (it does however kick in when you have eaten something). Insulin is made by the islets of Langerhans, which are the regions of the pancreas that contain its endocrine (i.e., hormone-producing) cells.
Is the pancreas apart of the circulatory system?
No, the pancreas is not a part of the circulatory system. It is part of both the digestive and endocrine systems as it secretes digestive enzymes and produces hormones (such as insulin).
What organ of the digestive system is associated with diabetes?
The pancreas is the organ associated with diabetes in the digestive system. It plays a key role in regulating blood sugar levels by producing insulin. In people with diabetes, the pancreas either produces insufficient insulin (Type 1 diabetes) or the body becomes resistant to the insulin produced (Type 2 diabetes).
How does the endocrine work with the digestive system?
the diestive system provides the energy and nutrition that the endocrine system uses and regulates. the endocrine system in turn regulates the digestive system by producing hormones such as insulin that help metabalize foods and nutrients.
Which organ system contains the pancreouse?
First of all it is spelled 'PANCREAS'. Most mammilian animals have one. In humans it is located below the diaphragm, adjacent to the stomach and the liver. It forms part of the digestive tract. Its function is to make insulin to aid the control of sugar levels in the blood stream. When the pancreas malfunctions and does not produce insulin , when required, people are ill with a condition known as diabetes.
What is the role of the pancres?
The pancreas plays a crucial role in digestion and regulating blood sugar levels. It produces digestive enzymes to help break down food in the intestines and also secretes insulin and glucagon hormones to control blood sugar levels in the body.
to what body system does the pancreas more properly belong?
the endocrine system is the answer. The pancreas has dual roles - it is an organ of the digestive system and of the endocrine system. The exocrine pancreas produces enzymes that help to digest food, particularly protein. The endocrine pancreas makes the hormone insulin, which helps to control blood sugar levels.
Is the pancreas part of the digestive tract?
No. The digestive tract consists of the tube that makes up the esophagus, stomach, small and large intestines, rectum, and anus. The pancreas (and liver) are accessory organs which, along with the digestive tract, make up the digestive system.
