BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -negative feedback. as sugar levels rise, insulin is released to bring those levels down. the response works in opposition to the original stimulus. what glands in the endocrine system are responsible for blood sugar?

Detailed explanation-2: -Having too much sugar in the blood for long periods of time can cause serious health problems if it’s not treated. Hyperglycemia can damage the vessels that supply blood to vital organs, which can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke, kidney disease, vision problems, and nerve problems.

Detailed explanation-3: -The control of blood sugar (glucose) by insulin is a good example of a negative feedback mechanism. When blood sugar rises, receptors in the body sense a change. In turn, the control center (pancreas) secretes insulin into the blood effectively lowering blood sugar levels.

Detailed explanation-4: -About 4–6 hours after you eat, the glucose levels in your blood decrease. This triggers your pancreas to produce glucagon. This hormone signals your liver and muscle cells to convert the stored glycogen back into glucose.

Detailed explanation-5: -Is your body’s response an example of positive or negative feedback? It is an example of negative feedback because it is working to lower the amount of sugar in the body by releasing insulin from the pancreas. Endocrine gland does the opposite of what the body is doing.
