Explanation:
Hormones glucagon and insulin are produced in the alpha and beta cells respectively in the Islet of Langerhan in the pancreas. They are involved in the negative feedback system of blood glucose regulation in homeostasis.
GLUCAGON: when there is a low blood glucose concentration, the pancreas detect this and alpha cells produce and release glucagon. Glucagon causes the cells of the body to absorb less glucose from the blood. It also inhibits the process of converting glucose into glycogen (glycogenesis) and cause gluconeogenesis (process of converting amino acids/proteins and lipids/fats into glucose) and glycogenolysis (conversion of glycogen to glucose). Finally, glucagon decreases the rate of respiration so less glucose is required.
INSULIN: when blood glucose is high, insulin is released. Insulin binds with cell surface receptors of cells and activates the enzymes attached to the receptor. The enzymes cause a conformational change in the structural proteins that surround glucose transport protein containing vesicles, causing them to move out of the way so the vesicles migrate up to the cell membrane and glucose transport proteins can fuse with it. Thus, more glucose can be taken in by cells. Insulin also cause glycogenesis (converting glucose into glycogen) and inhibits gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis.
Basically insulin decreases blood glucose concentration (eg. after eating) and glucagon increases it (eg. skipping breakfast in the morning)
<span>I suspect this question should read "How long does a red blood
cell live." A red blood cell lives for between 100 and 120 days. It
takes 7 days for a new red blood cell to develop from stem cells. Stem
cells are similar to base cells. They can also be seen as a general
template from which specialized cells are made. Stem cells can be taken
from a newborn baby's umbilical chord or extracted from an adult blood
donor's blood.</span>
I have searched everywhere, but I have not found the proposals of the question, but I will explain to you what is the endoplasmic reticulum so that you can answer it.
The endoplasmic reticulum is a eukaryotic organelle located in the cytoplasm.
The endoplasmic reticulum is a network of membrane tubules (often interconnected) scattered throughout the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. Its membrane, which alone represents more than half of the cellular membrane system, is in contact with the nuclear envelope.
The endoplasmic reticulum can be:
Granular (or rough) (RER) that is to say associated with ribosomes.
Smooth (SER).
The granular endoplasmic reticulum is the place of synthesis (in the associated ribosomes) of the proteins secreted outside the cell and of the proteins and lipids constituting the membranes of the cellular organelles. Golgi, lysosomes, mitochondria, nucleus, ribosomes, vesicles ...). It participates in the correct folding of the proteins that have just been synthesized.
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum participates in cellular metabolism, synthesizing lipids and storing calcium.
