Answer:

a. Glucagon is released by the beta cells of the pancreatic islets of Langerhans.

Explanation:

When the body is fasting, the pancreas releases glucagon so that your body can produce glucose. Glucagon is a protein hormone made and secreted by alpha cells from pancreatic islets (or islets of Langerhans).

The islets of Langerhans are a special group of cells in the pancreas that produce not only glucagon, but also insulin. These substances act as important regulators of sugar metabolism.

What is the importance of ATP and NADPH?​
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The energy that these molecules carry is stored in a bond that holds a single atom to the molecule. For ATP, it is a phosphate atom, and for NADPH, it is a hydrogen atom.

These electrons are used to produce NADPH as well as ATP in a series of reactions called the light reactions because they require light. NADPH and ATP formed by the action of light then reduce carbon dioxide and convert it into 3-phosphoglycerate by a series of reactions called the Calvin cycle or the dark reactions.
