Coordination is the process in which different body parts work together to complete the reflex arc that includes detecting a reflex and effecting on it.Coordination is very essential and important for us everything we do always requires coordination between neurones ,brain ,spinal cord and other organs .For example if you want to walk there has to be coordination between muscles ,and when you want to eat your food there has to be coordination between your eyes as well as your hands.Coordination is very vital simple tasks would had been impossible for one if there was no coordination without coordination one cannot live.
Pancreas is an endocrine gland that is situated behind the stomach .It is very necessary to keep your pancreas healthy because pancreas firstly help to produce pancreatic juice,pancreatic juice contains enzymes that help in the absorption of nutrients and the digestion in the small intestine. Secondly there is islets of Langerhans that is fixed in pancreas it contains alpha cells that secrete glucagon that helps increase glucose in the blood,there are beta cells present that secrete insulin which decreases glucose level in blood and there are PP cells that secrete pancreatic polypeptide.If pancreas isn't healthy anymore that body will not be able to achieve normal blood glucose level and then problems like diabetes

Artificial pancreas decrease the chances of getting more complication also it helps to decrease any expenses in future related to complication of diabetes .It helps to enhance the life of a patients suffering from diabetes. The components that make up the artificial pancreas are very advanced ,the components help to monitor the blood glucose level as well secretion of insulin in our body so artificial pancreas can be one step closer to the total cure for diabetes
The pancreas is a large glandular organ that is located behind the stomach. The main functions of the pancreas is to release the hormones insulin and glucagon into the bloodstream and secrete powerful digestive enzymes which enter the small intestine to help the digestion of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Pancreatitis is a rare digestive disorder that occurs due to the inflammation of the pancreas. The pancreas gets damaged because the body is unable to secrete enough digestive enzymes to break down foods.
The pancreas is composed of exocrine and endocrine tissues. The exocrine portion of the pancreas synthesizes and secretes pancreatic juices. The endocrine portion is composed of miniscule islands of cells, called the islets of Langerhans. These islets of Langerhans do not release their secretions into the pancreatic ducts. Instead, they release hormones into the blood stream, and these hormones in turn help control blood glucose levels (Function of the Pancreas). Beta cells of the islets of Langerhans secrete insulin, which
The pancreas can be divided into two sections when studying the histology. The pancreas has exocrine and endocrine functions, each with unique cell types. The exocrine pancreas serves to secrete digestive enzymes into the duodenum. Some of the specific enzymes and secreted substances are Proteases, lipase, amylase, bicarbonate, and water (Bowen, “Exocrine Secretions”). These enzymes are used to break down protein, fat, and carbohydrates respectively. The bicarbonate simply act as an acid buffer to prevent damage of the small intestine as the stomach acid must be neutralized. The enzymes are created in acinar cells and the bicarbonate is synthesized in epithelial cells surrounding pancreatic ducts (Bowen “Exocrine
... a wound/injury. The pancreas is just as important as it produces many hormones which are all important to keep the body normal and healthy. The pancreas is commonly known for producing insulin and glucagon which both help maintain the bodies blood glucose levels.
Macro-level coordination is when the focus of study is on the overall coordination needs and structural methods to address those needs. In the tale of two-unit Unit B communication between the hospital entire staff is frequent, timely, and accurate. While in Unit A there’s a lack of communication between staff causing the medical unit to be full of chaos. The lack of communication and protocols not being used properly causes departments like Unit A to run poorly and lack in quality and access when it comes to patient needs. Unit B also conducts interdisciplinary rounds daily unlike Unit A. It is essential for all health organizations to conduct rounds in order to ensure all departments are running smoothly and review patient satisfaction.
The website myclevelandclinic.org defines diabetes mellitus as a, "disease of the pancreas, an organ behind your stomach that produces the hormone insulin. Insulin helps the body use food for energy. When a person has diabetes, the pancreas either cannot produce enough insulin, uses the insulin incorrectly, or both. Insulin works together with glucose (sugar) in the bloodstream to help it enter the body's cells to be burned for energy. If the insulin isn't functioning properly, glucose cannot enter the cells. This causes glucose levels in the blood to rise, creating a condition of high blood sugar or diabetes, and leaving the cells without fuel."
The pancreas is an important organ in digest system. This organ controls human sugar levels and produces a special juice that release the nutrients from food. It is located behind stomach and hormones is helps to break down the food. It aids digestion by producing a special tonic made of water, sodium bicarbonate and digestive enzyme. Sodium bicarbonate neutralizes the stomach is natural acidity, so these digestive enzymes can perform their jobs. Main function of endocrine of pancreas is to produce the chemicals or hormones that regulate blood sugar. Exocrine of pancreas function is to produce enzymes that help to digest food that human eat. The cell of endocrine pancreas also known as Islets of Langerhans which secrete insulin and glucagon.
Diabetes is one of the most common diseases that almost every family is suffering these days with one or more family members globally. But most people are still unaware the causes, symptoms and treatment of diabetes. Diabetes, in a simple language, is directly related to our digestion system. Whatever we eat, we need to digest and for digestion our food breaks into small pieces of glucose or sugar. This sugar then goes to our blood cells and gives us energy to work for the day. Now to transfer glucose to our blood cells, we need insulin that is made by pancreas. If due to some reasons, our pancreas is not able to produce enough amount of insulin to transfer glucose into the blood cells, the condition is known as diabetes, and the person suffering from this disease is called as a diabetic.
Insulin is a main component in the regulation of the body’s metabolism. Insulin is regulated by digestion processes. At the beginning of digestion, carbohydrates are broken down into glucose and other sugar molecules. Glucose is then directly absorbed into the bloodstream which causes blood glucose levels to peak. At the same time, the pancreas releases insulin to allow the glucose to be absorbed into cells either to be used as energy or stored. Once levels are balanced, the pancreas reduces production of insulin. In a patient with Type II diabetes, insulin may be produced and able to attach to receptor cells but glucose is unable to move into the cell to be used. As the disease progresses, the pancreas is unable to produce sufficient insulin to overcome the resistance. This causes the beta cells to become damaged which results in permanent hyperglycemia (Diabetes- Type 2).
The pancreas has two functions; to make enzymes that help digest fats and proteins and the other, to produce insulin that controls the blood sugar level called glucose. It consists of Islet cells (1 of 3 types), which are endocrine glands. This means the Islet cells secret the insulin directly into the blood stream. The pancreas contains many more of these Islet cells than the body needs to maintain a normal insulin level. Even when half of the pancreas is removed, the blood sugar level can still remain normal. The pancreas is also made up of exocrine glands, which produce enzymes for digestion.
... is a technique that monitors the glucose level without the use of needles. Another type of therapy is the artificial pancreas. It combines glucose sensing and insulin delivery through a closed loop system. Mimicking the human pancreas, this therapy would register the blood glucose levels and in response deliver the right amount of insulin.
The pancreas is one of the essential organs in the human body and belongs in the Digestive system. Out of all the internal organs, the pancreas is unique because the pancreas plays a role in both the endocrine gland and the exocrine gland. This means that the pancreas is a dual function gland in which is the reason why the pancreas is such a vital part of the digestive system. This research paper will talk about the anatomy, physiology, and the important functions the pancreas play to maintain homeostasis.
Diabetes is a disease that I came across when researching my maternal side of my family history. Diabetes is a disease that affects your pancreas an important organ in regulating blood sugar. When a person has diabetes there are two ways it can affect the pancreas because there are two types of the disease. Type-1 diabetes affects the pancreas by not allowing the body to produce enough insulin to keep the body’s blood sugar at a healthy number. The opposite is for Type-2 which produces too much insulin and gives the body too much insulin keeping the blood sugar number above healthy (Type-2).
The pancreas, in addition to its digestive process has two important hormones, Insulin and Glucagon which are important for the maintenance of blood glucose level at a narrow range. Not only glucose, but also they are important for protein and lipid metabolism. Glucagon is secreted by the alpha cells of the islet of Langerhans and Insulin is secreted by the beta cells of Langerhans. Both are secreted to portal vein. (8)
Blood glucose levels are the measurement of glucose in an individual’s blood. This is important because glucose is the body’s main source of fuel and the brains only source of fuel. Without energy from glucose the cells would die. Glucose homeostasis is primarily controlled in the liver, muscle, and fat where it stored as glycogen. The pancreas is also a significant organ that deals with glucose. The pancreas helps regulate blood glucose levels. Alpha-islet and beta-islet pancreatic cells measure blood glucose levels and they also regulate hormone release. Alpha cells produce glucagon and beta cells produce insulin. The body releases insulin in response to elevated blood glucose levels to allow the glucose inside of cells and
