What organ releases glucose to help maintain normal blood glucose levels in between meals?
Liver
The liver secretes what into the body?
the liver produces bile which is then stored in the gallbladder and the liver also releases glucose into the blood when the levels are low
When the pituitary gland releases human growth hormone what is the effect on the liver?
When the pituitary gland releases hgH the effect on the liver is that it turns its glycogen into glucose to release into the body.
What is the hormone that signals the release of glucose out of storage?
When blood glucose levels drop, the pancreas releases the hormone glucagon, which signals the liver to release glucose into the bloodstream.
How do the human body is glucose stored?
Glucose is stored in the body as glycogen. It is stored in the liver and in muscle tissue until it is needed, then the hormone glucagon - 'turns-the-sugar-on'- and releases the glycogen as glucose into the bloodstream.
What is the primary organ that converts fructose to glucose following absorption?
The primary organ is the liver. This process of metabolizing fructose is called fructolysis.
What does glucose produce?
Glucose is a kind of sugar that your body needs and categorizes as "food". Glucose is what makes up your blood sugar level. If your blood sugar is too low, your pancreas detects this and releases the hormone insulin. This hormone travels aroudnt the body to get to the liver. The liver detects the insulin and takes glucose out of your blood and stores it as glycogen. Glycogen is essentially glucose in strings which the Liver stores for later use when the body is in need of glucose. This happens when the body detects the presence of Glycogon. Whenever your blood has too low sugar levels the pancreas releases a hormone called glycogon which then travels to the target organ, the Liver. The Liver, then detects the presence of the hormone glycogon, and uses up its reserves (glucose). The glucose is now sent out into your bloodstream which stabilises your sugar levels.

What hormone removes glucose from the blood and stores it in the liver?
GlucagonINSULIN causes glucose to be removed from the blood stream by having it stored in the form of Glycogen in muscle and liver cellsGLUCAGON causes glycogen to be broken down from liver and muscle tissue and releases glucose into the blood stream, thus increasing circulating blood glucose levels. The hormone, released by the pancreas, is insulin.
What are the basic steps of blood glucose regulation?
I know three out of six steps. 1. ? 2. Blood glucose levels increase. 3. ? 4. Glucose is stored in the liver. 5. ? 6. The pancreas releases glucagon. By Group 935[Chris]
What doest the liver remove from the bloodstream?
The liver removes glucose
Does insulin mobilize liver glycogen to yield glucose?
No, insulin stimulates the liver to produce glycogen from glucose. Glucagon mobilizes liver glycogen to yield glucose.
Glucose is stored in the liver as?
how Diabetic Ketoacidosis evolves and how the body compensates for the acid
