Vedclass · Answer

(D) The pancreas acts as both an exocrine and an endocrine gland.The endocrine part of the pancreas consists of the Islets of Langerhans, which contain different types of cells:$1$. $\alpha$-cells (Alpha cells) secrete the hormone Glucagon, which increases blood glucose levels.$2$. $\beta$-cells (Beta cells) secrete the hormone Insulin, which decreases blood glucose levels.$3$. $\delta$-cells (Delta cells) secrete the hormone Somatostatin, which inhibits the release of both insulin and glucagon.Therefore, the correct matching is:$P$ ($\alpha$-cells) $\rightarrow$ $I$ (Glucagon)$Q$ ($\beta$-cells) $\rightarrow$ $III$ (Insulin)$R$ ($\delta$-cells) $\rightarrow$ $II$ (Somatostatin)Thus, the correct sequence is $(P-I), (Q-III), (R-II)$.

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$P$. $\alpha$-cells	$I$. Glucagon
$Q$. $\beta$-cells	$II$. Somatostatin
$R$. $\delta$-cells	$III$. Insulin
