Why is the action of phagocytes considered a nonspecific response it does not occur at any specific temperature it is not a resp
saul85 [17]

The action of phagocytes doesn't happen at any certain temperature. No specific sort of lymphocyte is produced as a result of it. It doesn't react to any particular hormone.

The process of phagocytosis begins with attachment and ingestion of microbial particles into a bubblelike organelle called a phagosome. Once inside the phagocyte, the phagosome containing the microorganism joins with a lysosome, which contributes enzymes. The fusion of phagosome and lysosome results in a phagolysosome. Microorganisms are destroyed within minutes, and the microbial debris is eliminated from the cell in the process of egestion.

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.
