Answer:

in this individual , at the time of presentation's ratio of insulin is GREATER than glucagon.

Explanation:

the reason for this is that as the patient is HYPOGLYCEMIC ,it means that the blood glucose level is low . in blood, glucose concentration is maintained by 2 hormones namely: INSULIN and GLUCAGON. insulin depresses blood glucose concentration whereas glucagon increases blood glucose concentration. as patient is hypoglycemic then , INSULIN > GLUCAGON.

Answer:

Insulin > Glucagon.

Explanation:

The blood glucose level in the body is maintained by the two hormones known as insulin and glucagon. These hormones are released by the beta cells and alpha cells of the pancreas.

The insulin decreases the blood glucose level whereas glucagon increase the blood glucose level. The individual is hypoglycemic means that he has low blood glucose level in his body. At this condition, the body has high insulin and low glucagon level in the body.

Thus, the answer is Insulin > Glucagon.
