Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The pancreas produces both insulin and glucagon, but insulin is the main hormone involved in regulating the flow of glucose into cells. CCK (cholecystokinin) is a hormone released by the small intestine in response to the presence of food, which stimulates the release of digestive enzymes from the pancreas. So option A is incorrect, B is incorrect as glucagon actually raises blood sugar levels rather than regulating its flow into cells, and D is incorrect as angiotensin is a hormone involved in blood pressure regulation, not glucose regulation.
