zheka24 [161]

If the liver begins to release glycogen because the pancreas releases glucagon, the amount of <u>the concentration of insulin</u> in the bloodstream must be too low.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Glucagon is considered to be the primary catabolic hormone of the body and is produced by the pancreas.

When insulin in the bloodstream falls low, then the pancreas causes the liver to convert stored glycogen into glucose. Insulin allows glucose to be used by insulin-dependent tissue.

The body releases insulin and glucagon to keep the blood glucose level stable in the body. Under stress, the level of glucagon increases in the body.

Answer:

Answered below

Explanation:

Water is essential for the normal functioning of the organ systems in the body. Dehydration occurs when the water we take in is less than the water we lose. Water is lost fr the body through sweating, breathing, urination and defecation. Disease conditions like diarrhea and vomiting also cause loss of water.

When the body senses dehydration, there is a thirst signal to tell us to drink more water. The body then proceeds to the water leaving through the kidneys thereby conserving water in the body. This explains the concentrated and colored urine during dehydration.
