Question

Please help. Is the regulation of blood glucose levels a positive feedback loop or negative feedback loop? explain how you know.

Answer 1

Answer:

Negative feedback loops are the predominant mechanism used in homeostasis. Negative feedback loop: Blood sugar levels are controlled by a negative feedback loop.

Explanation:

The control of blood sugar (glucose) by insulin is a good example of a negative feedback mechanism. When blood sugar rises, receptors in the body sense a change. In turn, the control center (pancreas) secretes insulin into the blood effectively lowering blood sugar levels.
