25. (a) Liver cell(b) Smooth muscle cell in wall of blood vessel that supplies skeletal muscle (c) Smooth muscle cell in wall of blood vessel that supplies intestines Epinephrine β receptor Glycogen deposits Glucose Glycogen breaks down and glucose is released from cell. Blood glucose level increases. Blood vessel dilates, increasing flow to skeletal muscle. Cell relaxes. Epinephrine β receptor α receptor Cell contracts. Blood vessel constricts, decreasing flow to intestines. Epinephrine
