Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Insulin and glucagon work in what’s called a negative feedback loop. During this process, one event triggers another, which triggers another, and so on, to keep your blood sugar levels balanced.
Detailed explanation-3: -Hormones of the Pancreas. Regulation of blood glucose is largely done through the endocrine hormones of the pancreas, a beautiful balance of hormones achieved through a negative feedback loop.
Detailed explanation-4: -When insulin is present in the blood, more glucose is carried into the cell, resulting in a glucose shortage in the blood. Low glucose levels restrict insulin secretion in the circulation, causing negative feedback to prevent glucose shortages.
