Identify the primary function of the pancreas in the endocrine system, which is to regulate blood glucose levels.
Understand that the pancreas produces several hormones, including insulin and glucagon, which play key roles in glucose regulation.
Recognize that insulin is the hormone responsible for lowering blood glucose levels by facilitating the uptake of glucose into cells.
Differentiate between insulin and glucagon: insulin decreases blood glucose levels, while glucagon increases them by promoting the release of glucose from stored glycogen in the liver.
Conclude that among the options provided, insulin is the hormone produced by the pancreas that helps regulate glucose levels in the blood.
