Question 1 of 5
Which hormone released by the Islets of Langerhans, acts to increase blood glucose?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Glucagon. Glucagon is released by the Islets of Langerhans in response to low blood glucose levels. It acts to increase blood glucose levels by stimulating glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis in the liver, releasing stored glucose into the bloodstream. This helps to raise blood sugar levels back to normal. Other choices are incorrect as they do not play a role in increasing blood glucose levels.
