Question is incomplete i have added complete question in ask for detail section and at the end of this question.

Answer:

b. using negative feedback to decrease blood glucose levels

Explanation:

When the level of glucose increases in the blood and become higher than the normal level a negative feedback mechanism is initiated under the control of hypothalamus. which increase the metabolism of excessive glucose level present in blood and hence results in decrease or normalization of glucose level in blood.

Reference: Mayer, Jean. "Glucostatic mechanism of regulation of food intake." New England Journal of Medicine 249.1 (1953): 13-16.

Complete question

Which method best describes how an organism regulates blood glucose levels after consumption of a large meal?

a. using negative feedback to increase blood glucose levels

b. using negative feedback to decrease blood glucose levels

c. using positive feedback to increase blood glucose levels

d. using positive feedback to decrease blood glucose levels

When you breathe, the pressure inside the lungs is different than the pressure outside the lungs. this is an example of a(n)?
goblinko [34]

The pressure inside your lungs and the pressure outside them fluctuate as you breathe. An illustration of a pressure gradient is this.

<h3>What is an example of pressure gradient?</h3>
  • The pressure gradient is the amount by which the atmospheric pressure drops in a location at a particular time.
  • A pressure gradient is demonstrated by gale-force winds in one city changing to a moderate breeze after an hour. the rate of the pressure in space decreasing (gradient) at a specific period.
<h3>How does pulmonary ventilation change with pressure gradient?</h3>

Thoracic ventilation Because air moves down a pressure gradient, or from an area of greater pressure to an area of lower pressure, the difference in pressures is what drives pulmonary ventilation.

When breathing in and out, the respiratory airways restrict the flow of air. The air must be transported by the pressure gradient from the mount (or nose) to the pulmonary alveoli.
