Tail:_
Endocrine and exocrine
Right,
across extends posterior to stomach
Points to the spleen in the left upper quadrant
_cells(exocrine) produce pancreatic digestive enzymes
Acinar
: Contains endocrine cells like little islands within the Acinar cell clusters
- cells produce glucagon
-cells produce insulin

Insulin lowers blood glucose levels in three ways:
Increases membrane transport of glucose _ muscle and organ
Inhibits breakdown of to (_)
Inhibits conversion of amino acid or fat to glucose
Into
Glycogen to glucose
Glycogenolysis
Gluconeogenesis
Glucagon raises by targeting liver to:
Breakdown glycogen into glucose ()
Synthesize glucose from lactic acid and other non-carbohydrate ()
Glycogenolysis
Gluconeogenesis
Diabetes mellitus can be due to
