Which feedback mechanism is used to regulate blood glucose?

Biology
1 answer:
ASHA 777 [7]3 years ago
7 0

<span><span>B. a negative feedback loop because the blood glucose level was returned to the set point, not amplified

</span>The glands which get involved are the pancreas and adrenal glands.</span><span> During increase in blood sugar, the pancreas secretes insulin, a hormone produced by the beta cells of the pancreas. Insulin causes red blood cells, muscle cells and fat cell to absorb sugar from the blood.</span><span>During decrease of blood sugar, the pancreas secretes  glucagon, a hormone produced by the alpha cells of the pancreas. Glucagon causes the liver to release the glucose stored in its cells.</span><span>The Adrenal gland secretes cortisol during times of low blood sugar levels.  Cortisol promotes the use of fatty acids to provide energy for working muscles, rather than using glucose.</span>

drawing upon the results of this exercise, why is pseudomonas aeruginosa of such concern in burn patients chegg
Agata [3.3K]

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is of concern in burn patients beacuse it can cause infections like AIDS,diabetes mellitus , etc.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common bacteria that can be found in soil, water, and other environmental niches. Burn wounds are intricate microenvironments where bacterial pathogens like P. aeruginosa can cause infections. Typical virulence factors like pyocyanin and pyoverdine expressed at higher levels than they would have under conventional laboratory conditions.

Elastase is secreted as well, is primarily responsible for the host tissues'  degradation. P. aeruginosa infections cause severe consequences mostly in organisms with weakened natural defences. Examples of these circumstances include burn wound patients.

Answer:

38. Chlorophyll's job in a plant is to absorb light—usually sunlight. The energy absorbed from light is transferred to two kinds of energy-storing molecules. Through photosynthesis, the plant uses the stored energy to convert carbon dioxide (absorbed from the air) and water into glucose, a type of sugar.

39. The energy from light causes a chemical reaction that breaks down the molecules of carbon dioxide and water and reorganizes them to make the sugar (glucose) and oxygen gas

40. Without enough light, a plant cannot photosynthesise very quickly - even if there is plenty of water and carbon dioxide and a suitable temperature. Increasing the light intensity increases the rate of photosynthesis, until some other factor - a limiting factor - becomes in short supply.

41. Photosynthesis, the process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy. During photosynthesis in green plants, light energy is captured and used to convert water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into oxygen and energy-rich organic compounds.
