There are 2 main hormones that can control blood glucose levels : insulin and glucagon.
Both of them are produced in the pancreas.
If the blood glucose level is too high, insulin can help by converting glucose into glycogen, the storage form of carbohydrates.
If the blood glucose is too low, glucagon can covert glycogen back into glucose to increase blood glucose level. Both of these hormones can work together to control blood glucose level in body.

Persistent chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticides persist in the environment and accumulate in the foods chain causing harmful effects on the environment including posing a threat to humans health in the long term. Nonpersistent organophosphate pesticides are more toxic than the former but degrade after a short life span. Therefore they cause immediate harm in case one is in contact with them.
The fact that they do not accumulate in the environment, they are more favourable than chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticides. Chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticides will affect several generations due to their accumulation in the environment. However they don't need to be re-applied hence are less expensive
