Question

The control of blood glucose level is a good example of:

• A. Anabolism
• B. Homeostasis
• C. Respiration
• D. Excretion

Answer 1

The correct option is B Homeostasis

$\bullet$ Homeostasis is the maintenance of a constant internal environment of the body.
$\bullet$ The control of blood glucose level is a good example of homeostasis and it involves the secretion of at least six hormones.
$\bullet$ A rise in the blood glucose level stimulates insulin secretion whereas a fall in the blood glucose level inhibits insulin secretion and stimulates the secretion of glucagon and other hormones which raise blood glucose levels.
