Answer: Pancreas

Step-by-step explanation:

The steroidal hormones can be produced by the ovaries, adrenal cortex and testes but it is not produced by pancreas.

The hormones that is released by pancreas are glucagon and insulin and they are not steroidal hormones.

After meal the glucose reaches the blood and the blood glucose level increases which leads to increased insulin production.

The glucagon is released when the blood glucose level decreases in the body.
