When blood glucose levels rise, the hormone ___ is released from the ___ to convert excess glucose into glycogen, a short-term e
Mariana [72]

Answer:

insulin; pancreas.

Explanation:

An endocrine system refers to a series of ductless glands and organs responsible for the production and secretion of hormones that are used by the body for the performance of various functions such as metabolism, controlling growth, reproduction, mood, sleep, etc. These hormones are secreted directly into the circulatory system (blood) and then transported to the organs and tissues in the body.

Basically, the endocrine system contributes significantly to the state of homeostasis in the body.

Homeostasis can be defined as a process through which a living organism maintains a steady or stable physical, internal and chemical environment that is ideal to enhance life and proper functionality.

Generally, when the blood glucose levels of a person rise, through an endocrine system, the hormone known as insulin is released from the pancreas to convert excess glucose into glycogen, which is typically a short-term energy storage molecule for the body.

In conclusion, the endocrine system maintain homeostasis by releasing insulin from the pancreas to decrease blood sugar and releasing glucagon to increase blood sugar.

andrey2020 [161]
This is a type III hypersensitivity reaction mediated by immune complex deposits. Immune complexes are antigen-antibody (commonly IgG) complexes that are soluble and prone to deposition in multiple organs. Once immune complexes are deposited in an organ, neutrophils and macrophages will then attack the organ causing organ damage and eventually failure. Type III hypersensitivity reactions are characteristic in SLE and other autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, etc.

Other types are type I hypersensitivity which are mediated by mast cells and histamine with the involvement of IgE and this commonly happens in allergic reactions. Type II hypersensitivity is cytotoxic hypersensitivity wherein antibodies directly attack organs (not forming immune complexes). Type IV hypersensitivity (or cell-mediated toxicity) involves T-lymphocytes. This is a delayed type of hypersensitivity exemplified by reactions from <em>M. tuberculosis</em> bacilli in tuberculous disease.
