having an effect on different organs or tissues.

Insulin and glucagon are hormones produced in the pancreas. They
play a role in regulating blood glucose levels.
Insulin – produced by beta-cells
when glucose levels increase as a
result of eating.
It stimulates:
• Cells to uptake and metabolize
glucose

glycogen. This stores it for
future use by…

Insulin and glucagon are hormones produced in the pancreas. They
play a role in regulating blood glucose levels.
Glucagon – produced by alpha-cells
when glucose levels drop. It
stimulates:
• The breakdown of glycogen to
glucose molecules in the liver.
The resulting glucose are
released into the blood for use
by body tissue cells.

involves adjusting diet to prevent spikes in blood sugar. Starchy
foods should only be eaten if they have a low glycemic index.

Harvey slaughtered female

Immediately after mating he

months, though, he was able to

He regarded this as proof that
the ‘seed and soil’ theory was
false.
He also concluded, though, that
sexual intercourse did not result

chance for pregnancy to occur.
Control of the cycle

• Follicular – a group of follicle
cells develop in the ovary. In
each, an egg is stimulated to

released into to oviduct
• Luteal – Wall of the follicle
becomes the corpus luteum.
If a fertilized egg does not

this breaks down.
