If the blood glucose level falls to dangerous levels (as during very heavy exercise or lack of food for extended periods), the alpha cells of the pancreas release glucagon, a hormone whose effects on liver cells act to increase blood glucose levels. They convert glycogen into glucose (this process is called glycogenolysis).
Ireland's climate is influenced most by the Atlantic Ocean. As a result, it doesnât have the extreme temperatures that other countries at similar latitude would have. The average temperature is a mild 50Â°F. A major warm ocean current called the North Atlantic Drift keeps sea temperatures mild too.
