The pituitary gland is connected to the hypothalamus. The pituitary is a pea sized organ that controls hormones. What the hypothalamus does is control body temperature, thirst, hunger, and other homeostatic systems, and involved in sleep and emotional activity. The hypothalamus needs the pituitary to be active because the pituitary makes the decision of what people are feeling in their body, and the hypothalamus releases those feelings into the body.

When an animal confronts a "fight-or-flight" situation, the release of epinephrine promotes glycogen breakdown in the liver, hea

nika2105 [10]

Answer: and Explanation:

A.)The reason for the different products of glycogen breakdown in the two tissues is that glucose 6-phosphotase which is

a known enzyme that brings about hydrolysis of glucose 6-phosphate as a result of the creation of a phosphate group and free glucose is not available in heart and skeletal muscle, therefore,any glucose 6-phosphotase that is produced will just enters the glycolytic pathway and get converted to lactate through pyruvate, in the absence of Oxygen O2.

B) Whenever a situation involving fight or flight arises, the concentration of glycolytic precursors becomes high in order to prepare for muscular activity. Since the membrane is impermeable to any charged species, and at the same time glucose 6-phosphotase enzyme cannot be moved through the glucose transporter, then there cannot be a release of Phosphorylated intermediates from the cell. The blood glucose level must be maintained by the liver by releasing of glucose.

glucose that is later formed from glucose 6-phosphotase then enters the bloodstream.
