Introduction
Blood sugar it is the very important component in living organisms, it is also known as glycaemia. Simply blood sugar means the amount of glucose in blood. Body maintain glocuse level as a component of metabolic homeostasis. Most of the blood sugar is consumed by fasting. A glucometer is the device by which blood sugar level is measured. Importance of blood is that it improve your energy and mood.

Andrew's doctor tested his blood glucose level and found it was very high at 250 mg/dL. The normal blood sugar range is between 70 - 130 mg/dL. Andrew's doctor immediately started him on insulin at 11:00 am. Andrew's Blood Sugar Levels 300 250 200 150 100 50 8:00 AM 9:00 AM 10:00 AM 11:00 AM 12:00 PM 1:00 PM 2:00 PM 3:00 PM 4:00 PM 5.00 PM 6:00 PM 7:00 PM Time Based on the information, what is the best explanation for how the negative feedback mechanism works to control the amount of sugar in Andrew's blood? Glucose from the food stimulates the pancreas to produce more insulin to regulate blood sugar. The pancreas produces insulin after a meal to decrease the amount of glucose in the blood to maintain homeostasis. The pancreas does not control homeostatic blood glucose levels by secreting insulin. O Insulin production increases hunger…arrow_forward
