Identify the function of each hormone listed in the problem: Insulin, Somatostatin, Glucagon, and Cortisol.
Understand that the pancreas secretes hormones that regulate blood sugar levels, primarily Insulin and Glucagon.
Recall that Insulin decreases blood sugar levels by facilitating the uptake of glucose into cells.
Recognize that Glucagon is the hormone that stimulates the liver to convert stored glycogen into glucose, thereby increasing blood sugar levels.
Conclude that the hormone secreted by the pancreas which stimulates the liver to increase blood sugar levels is Glucagon.
