Negative feedback
The Chemical messenger produced in glands and carried by the blood to specific organs in the body.A hormone that regulates the level of sugar in the blood and can be produced by genetically modified bacteria. plays a key role in blood A simple sugar used by cells for respiration. regulation.
When blood sugar rises in the blood, insulin encourages the body's cells to take up glucose. Cells of the liver and muscles take up and store the excess glucose as Animals store glucose as glycogen in their liver and muscle tissues..
If the blood glucose level is too low, the liver releases some of that stored glucose into the blood. This change is brought about by another hormone produced by the pancreas called A hormone produced by the pancreas that promotes the breakdown of glycogen into glucose in the liver..
This is an example of negative feedback.
