<span>The pancreas is a glandular organ in the upper abdomen, but really it serves as two glands in one: a digestive exocrine gland and a hormone-producing endocrine gland. Functioning as an exocrine gland, the pancreas excretes enzymes to break down the proteins,lipids,carbohydrates,and nucleic acids in food.</span>

The population varies

Explanation:

Which of the broad categories of resource use account for a disproportionate (or the largest) amount of your ecological footprin
enot [183]

The total productive areas in which a population, a person, or a product competes are tallied as ecological footprint. It gauges the ecological resources needed by a particular population or product to produce the natural resources it consumes (such as plant-based food and fiber products, livestock and fish products, timber and other forest products, and space for urban infrastructure), as well as to absorb its waste, particularly carbon emissions.

<h3>What is ecological reserve/deficit?</h3>

An ecological deficit happens when a population's ecological footprint exceeds the biocapacity of the space that population has access to. If a country has a national ecological deficit, it is either importing biocapacity through commerce, selling off its ecological resources, or releasing carbon dioxide waste into the sky. When a region's biocapacity surpasses its population's ecological footprint, an ecological reserve is created.

Lately the greenhouse effect has been magnified due to greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere by humans. and global warming is a gradual increase in the overall temperature of the earth's atmosphere generally attributed to the greenhouse effect caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide, CFCs, and other pollutants.Global warming refers to the increase in annual average temperatures across the globe. As the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere increases, the planet becomes warmer and warmer on average.
