Explanation / Answer

1). Insulin is an endocrine hormone produced by the pancreas. It follows the mechanism of long-distancee signalling." The “endocrine glands” are ductless glands, which release the hormones into the blood and are transported to a site distant from its origin where it produces its action. It is known as endocrine signalling or long distance signalling.
