Homeostasis and Diabetes Intro

Which of the following is not regulated by homeostasis?

• body temperature

• blood sugar

• blood pH

• body movements

which organ will balance the glucose level in the blood by releasing hormones like insulin or glucagon?

• Stomach

• Small intensine

• large intestine

• Pancreas

Excess of glucose will be stored in what form?

• insulin

• glycogen

• glucagon

• glucose

Which hormone is released when blood sugar gets too low?

• glucose

• glucagon

• glycogen

• insulin

What is homeostasis?

• Chemical reactions that happen in the body

• Maintaining a constant internal environment

• How information is passed to the next generation

• The process of change and development

What happens when blood glucose levels are chronically (all the time) high?

• The cells stop responding to insulin

• The pancreas stops being able to make much insulin

• The high glucose causes damage to the body's organs

• All are correct

Type of cells that make insulin

• Beta cells 
• Alpha cells
• Omega cells 
• Insulin cells

The "cause" for something to happen is the

• response
• effect
• stimulus
• homeostasis

What type of feedback loop is shown?

• negative

• neutral

• positive

As you get dehydrated, your blood becomes thicker and harder to pump. Your kidneys will respond by stopping urine production, sending the water from urine into your bloodstream to thin your blood back to normal level.

• Positive Feedback Response
• Negative Feedback Loop
