This prompts your pancreas to release <u>glucagon</u> to stimulate breakdown of glycogen in the liver into glucose.

<h3>WHAT IS THE ROLE OF GLUCAGON?</h3>

Glucagon is responsible for breaking down glycogen and releasing glucose, when the body is hypoglycemic, between meals, to maintain the glucose level and provide energy to the cells. This is what we call glycogenolysis.

With this information, we can conclude that starvation causes your pancreas to release glucagon to stimulate the breakdown of glycogen in the liver into glucose.
