Answer:

Lipids

Explanation:

  • Lipids are biomolecules that are insoluble in water and are made up of fatty acids, sterols, and isoprenoid compounds.
  • Lipid rich foods are high in calories and owing to the presence of fatty acids the lipids are used as energy storage molecules in the body.
  • The fatty acids help in energy storage as they are composed of long chains of hydrocarbons that are attached to carboxylic acids.
  • These fatty acids go under the process of reduction and on getting reduced they produce acetyl CoA which can be utilized to produce ATP.
  • Some common examples of lipid-rich foods are oils, butter, etc.

When glucose levels in the blood increase after eating a meal, the pancreas secretes insulin to lower blood glucose levels back
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

This hormonal control of blood glucose levels is an examples of negative feedback response.

Explanation:

The blood glucose concentration maintain their concentration through negative feedback mechanisms.Alpha and beta cell present in pancreas. Alpha and beta cell  produced insulin and glucagon which act as a antagonistic hormones and control blood glucose level.

Insulin is secreted by beta cell.Beta cell secreted insulin when glucose level increased in the blood.Insulin helps to stimulate  liver to absorb glucose.Liver convert glucose to glycogen and adipose cells convert the glucose to the fat.In response, glucose concentration decreases in the blood, and insulin secretion discontinues (through negative feedback from declining levels of glucose)

Glucagon is secreted by alpha cells. when the concentration of blood glucose level drops then alpha cells secrete glucagon into the blood.Glucagon stimulates the liver for release of glucose. When blood glucose levels return to normal then glucagon secretion stopped.Its a negative feedback response.
