Solution
The correct option is B Hypoglycemia
The pancreas is a heterocrine gland, acts as both exocrine and endocrine gland. There are two types of cells - alpha cells and beta cells which produce endocrine secretions. Alpha cells secrete a hormone called glucagon and beta cells secrete a hormone called insulin which regulates the glucose homeostasis. The beta cells get stimulated and release insulin which increases uptake of glucose by cells for respiration, uptake of glucose by liver and muscle cells for glycogenesis, uptake of amino acids by cells and synthesis of proteins and fat synthesis in adipose tissue. This would decrease the glucose concentration in blood and would increase the rapid movement of glucose from the blood to hepatocytes and adipocytes resulting in hypoglycaemia that decreases in blood glucose level. So, the correct answer is 'hypoglycaemia'.
