mathwiz1	The pancreas is the organ that contains the Alpha-Islet cells, also more commonly known as the Islets of Langerhans, which secrete insulin which is the enzyme responsible for lowering blood sugar, and beta-islet cells which are responsible for secreting proteins and enzymes responsible for causing the liver to convert stored reserves of glycogen in the liver into glucose to raise the blood sugar level to a normal level if the blood glucose level is below normal.
