What happens to glucose levels after eating?

Glucose levels rise above 90 MG/100 ML.

What hormone does the pancreas release in response to high glucose levels?

Insulin.

What process does the liver use to store excess glucose?

What happens to glucose levels after the liver stores excess glucose?

Glucose levels decrease back to 90 MG/100 ML.

What triggers the pancreas to release glucagon?

A drop in glucose levels below 90 MG/100 ML.

What happens to glycogen when glucagon is released?

Glycogen is broken down into glucose through hydrolysis.

What effect does glucagon have on glucose levels?

Glucose levels increase back to 90 MG/100 ML.

What is the normal glucose level maintained in the body?
