The functions of glucagon do not include:
1. Glycogenolysis
2. Gluconeogenesis
3. Increased cellular glucose uptake
4. Decreased cellular glucose utilization
What would not be true for pancreas?
1. | The exocrine pancreatic acini secrete digestive enzymes |
2. | The endocrine islets of Langerhans constitute about 50% of the gland |
3. | The hormones secreted by endocrine pancreas are peptides |
4. | Alpha cells secrete glucagon, beta cells secrete insulin and delta cells secrete somatostatin |
Glycosuria and ketonuria are diagnostic of:
1. Graves’ disease | 2. Addison’s disease |
3. Conn’s syndrome | 4. Diabetes mellitus |
1. Pancreas | 2. Parathyroid |
3. Pineal | 4. Adrenal cortex |
I: | A is insulin and B is glucagon |
II: | A is a peptide hormone and B is a steroid |
III: | A is a hypoglycaemic hormone and B is a hyperglycaemic hormone |
1. | Only I is correct | 2. | Only I and III are correct |
3. | Only II is correct | 4. | I, II and III are correct |
Assertion (A): | Insulin causes hypoglycemia. |
Reason (R): | As a result of action of insulin especially on adipocytes and hepatocytes, there is a rapid movement of glucose from blood to these cells. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
