ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

1) intake of glucose molecules from the blood by specific transporters

2) high amount of glucose in the blood, sending signals toward the pancreas

3) binding of hormones with receptors on the liver

4) release of hormones from the receptors

5) synthesis of hormones by beta cells

Explanation:

During ingestion of the meal, insulin is produced in response to high blood glucose levels (concentration of glucose increases after digestion of food). Like other hormones, insulin performed its action through binding specific signals to specific receptors e.g, liver, muscle cells.  The high glucose level in the blood send signals through hormones to liver, fat, and muscle cell receptors. These receptors release specific hormones to beta cells of the pancreas. In response to the signals from receptors, beta cells synthesize insulin to minimize glucose levels in the bloodstream.

german

Answer:

The correct option is Blood cells are produced in bone marrow.​

Explanation:

Skeletal system can be described as the system which comprises of all the bones and joints of an organism. The main function of the skeleton system is to provide support and protection to the organism.

The circulatory system can be described as a system which comprises of the heart, blood vessels and blood. This system is mainly involved in the transportation of substances like oxygen, nutrients etc in the body.

The skeletal system interacts with many other systems of the body and helps them perform their functions. For example, the skeletal system interacts with the muscular system so that a muscle can contract and relax.

The skeletal system interacts with the circulatory system by producing blood cells in the bone marrow. Red blood cells, as well as white blood cells, are produced by this process.
