Vedclass · Answer

(D) The Islets of Langerhans contain different types of endocrine cells:$1$. Alpha cells $(A)$ secrete glucagon,which stimulates the liver to perform glycogenolysis (breakdown of glycogen to glucose),matching with $IV$.$2$. Beta cells $(B)$ secrete insulin,which stimulates cells (including muscles) to take up glucose and promotes glycogenesis (formation of glycogen),matching with $I$.$3$. Delta cells $(C)$ secrete somatostatin,which inhibits the release of other pancreatic hormones and also decreases gastric secretions and absorption in the digestive tract,matching with $II$.$4$. $F$ cells (or $PP$ cells) $(D)$ secrete pancreatic polypeptide,which inhibits the release of pancreatic juice,matching with $III$.Therefore,the correct matching is $A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III$.

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$A$. Alpha cells	$I$. Stimulates muscles for glycogenesis.
$B$. Beta cells	$II$. Decreases gastric secretions and absorption in digestive tract.
$C$. Delta cells	$III$. Inhibits the release of pancreatic juice.
$D$. $F$ cells	$IV$. Stimulates liver for glycogenolysis.
