Insulin unlock the energy within glucose so a cell can use.

What is pancreas?

The pancreas is a lobed or compact gland of vertebrates that is located next to the small intestine.

Characteristics of pancreas

  • It complies with the production of several hormones such as insulin, which prevents a certain limit in the amount of glucose in the blood from being exceeded.

  • If the pancreas works properly, it releases insulin after each meal, which allows us to store glucose as energy inside the cells, except in diabetics.

Therefore, we can conclude that the pancreas regulates blood glucose, when the body attacks the beta cells or the cells no longer respond to the action of insulin, the person develops diabetes.
