3.  Somatostatin which prevents the release of the insulin and glucagon  insulin and glucagon- regulate the level of glucose in the blood  Somatostatin decreases the rate of excretion, and reduces smooth muscle contractions and blood flow within the intestine.  Insulin is secreted by the beta cells of the pancreas in response to high blood pressure.  Glucagon is secreted by the alpha cells of the pancreas when blood glucose is low.

4.  Homeostasis is regulated by insulin and glucagon.  The production of insulin and glucagon determine if someone will have diabetes.

5.  Pancreatic islets contain two kinds of cells, alpha cells and beta cells.  When the blood glucose level is high, insulin lowers it(Insulin), when the blood glucose level is low, glucagon raises glucose levels(alpha cells).

6.  In the pancreas enzymes are made to pass into the gut to help digest food.  Insulin and glycogen are made to help regulate the blood sugar level.
