Which organ is responsible for maintaining a steady level of blood sugar in the body?

1 answer

The pancreas is the organ responsible for maintaining a steady level of blood sugar in the body. It produces insulin, which helps lower blood sugar levels by facilitating the uptake of glucose into cells, and glucagon, which raises blood sugar levels by signaling the liver to release stored glucose. Together, these hormones work to regulate blood sugar levels and keep them within a normal range.
