In the human body, when the blood sugar level rises, a hormone known as insulin is released by the pancreas. This hormone speeds

up the movement of sugar out of the blood, so the blood sugar level decreases and returns to equilibrium.

Answer:

Insulin is a harmone secreted by pancreas which is responsible for the control of sugar levels in the blood.

Explanation:

When the blood has high levels of glucose, insulin send signals to the muscle in order to absorb glucose from the blood and stored it in the form glycogen and used this sugar when it is deficit in the blood. If insulin is not secreted or didn't perform its functions properly so various diseases like obesity and diabetes occurs and organs are also resistant to harmones which destroy equilibrium in the body.

Choose a scientific theory and describe the theory.
faltersainse [42]
I’m not 100% sure if this is a scientific theory but I’m going with the big bang theory. The big bang theory is a scientist best guess on how the world came to be. A 2013 map of the background radiation left over from the Big Bang, taken by the ESA's Planck spacecraft, captured the oldest light in the universe. This information helps astronomers determine the age of the universe.

To understand food chains and food webs, we must start with where the energy begins. Sunlight is energy, and plants use this energy to turn water and carbon dioxide into plant food. This process is called “photosynthesis”. Plants also need minerals and nutrients. They get these from the soil when their roots take up water. While this might not sound like the kind of food you would want to eat, this plant food allows plants to grow, flower, and produceproduce things like acorns, potatoes, carrots, apples, pecans, and many other kinds of fruits.

Because plants make so much energy, they are called “producers”. Their ability to use sunlight to make food makes them a very important source of energy for other living things. Think about all the animals that eat plants. Wow, it's mind-boggling! Now, think about all the places that plants grow. From the oceans to the deserts to the mountaintops, plants can be found nearly everywhere basking in the sunlight and making their own food. And wherever plants grow, animals that depend upon them are sure to be found.
