Answer:
Glucagon refers to the hormones that instruct the cells in the muscles and liver to transform glycogen into glucose and discharge it within the blood so that it can be used further for energy purposes. The main function of glucagon is to compensate for the work done by insulin.
The concentration of glucose within the blood gets reduce after 4-6 hours of eating something. This reduction in the level of glucose signals the pancreas to discharge glucagon.
