the vagina
What part of the digestive system rpdouces insulin to control blood sugar?
Pancreas
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).
What is the role of the pancreas?
The pancreas has two main roles: 1.) Producing digestive enzymes 2.) Producing hormones such as insulin and glucagon.
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.
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 pancreatitis a disorder of the skeletal system?
No. Pancreatitis is the inflamation or infection of the pancreas, a glandular organ which secretes digestive enzymes and produces insulin which regulates the body's glucose levels. The pancreas is part of the endocrine and digestive systems.
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.
Is the Pancreas a part of the Digetive System?
Yes, the pancreas is part of the digestive system. It produces digestive enzymes that help break down carbohydrates, proteins, and fats in the small intestine to aid in digestion. Additionally, the pancreas also produces insulin to regulate blood sugar levels.
What does the pancreas do with the digestive system and the endocrine system?
the pancreascreates enzymes for the digestive system and produces hormones for the endocrine system
What is gland that secretes most of the digestive enzymes and few important hormones?
The pancreas is the gland that secretes most of the digestive enzymes and a few important hormones like insulin and glucagon. These enzymes help in breaking down carbohydrates, proteins, and fats in the digestive system, while insulin and glucagon help regulate blood sugar levels.
