Question 6

beta cell

Answer 6

insulin

Question 7

F cell

Answer 7

pancreatic polypeptide

Question 8

insulin secreted in response to

Answer 8

hyperglycemia, synthesized as a larger molecule inside Golgi and packaged into secretory granules awing secretion, release contents via exocytosis, then goes to circulation

Question 9

GLUT2

Answer 9

allows insulin to diffuse freely into the cell, make ATP, voltage gated calcium channels, insulin exocytosis, binds to receptor tyrosine kinase
