Answer: Receptor protein.

Explanation:

The receptor protein on the cell surface would enable a cell to respond to glucagon. The glucagon binds to the GPCR on the liver and muscle cells and is known as glucagon receptor.

This receptor then stimulates cells to release glucose into the blood stream. Another hormones involved during this process is glucagon like peptide 1.

It works by binding to another GPCR which is GLP-1 receptor found on the pancreatic cells.

Research this week will be done over the Respiratory system
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and lungs

The respiratory system is what allows us to breathe and exchange carbon dioxide for oxygen. The human respiratory system is a series of organs responsible for taking in oxygen and expelling carbon dioxide. ... The lungs work with the circulatory system to pump oxygen-rich blood to all cells in the body.

The respiratory system does not work alone in transporting oxygen through the body. The respiratory system works directly with the circulatory system to provide oxygen to the body. Oxygen taken in from the respiratory system moves into blood vessels that then circulate oxygen-rich blood to tissues and cells.
