When we have not eaten for a while, blood glucose levels fall, which prompts a decrease in insulin and an increase in glucagon.  

Low blood glucose triggers the alpha cells of pancreas to release glucagon. It prompts the liver to release glucose it has stored in its cells into the bloodstream. This increases the glucose in the blood. Insulin responds to blood sugar level opposite to glucagon. Insulin increases with high blood sugar.

3. Which of the following reflect reasons for America's interest in the Panama Canal?
Rom4ik [11]

"To facilitate the faster movement of naval ships from the Atlantic to the Pacific" reflect one of the reasons for America's interest in the Panama Canal.

<u>Answer:</u> Option E

<u>Explanation:</u>

Panama Canal is an artificial or man-made waterway of 82 km located in transcontinental country in Central America and South America named as "Panama". France was the very first nation to start work on the canal in 1881 but after some engineering issues they eliminated themselves from the project.

In 1901 the United States leaded the project which finally resulted into inaugural ceremony of the panama canal on 15th August, 1914.The bypass, one of the largest and most complex engineering projects ever undertaken, significantly reduced the time for ships to pass between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Therefore it allowed them to avoid the long, risky Cape Horn path around the southernmost tip of South America via the Drake Passage or Magellan Strait.
