Describe the negative feedback control of blood glucose levels, and explain the roles of insulin and glucagon in regulating blood glucose levels. ANSWER SHOULD INCLUDE: Explain the meaning of "negative feedback control', Name the 2 hormones involved and which part of pancreas produces each one Explain the stimulus for release of each hormone. Explain the response to hyperglycaemia (what happens to glucose? Explain the meaning of term such as facilitated diffusion, glycogenesis , gluconeogenesis) Explain how blood glucose returns to normal (homeostasis) Explain the response to hyperglycaemia (what happens to glucose? What happens in glyconeogenesis?) In which organs do these events occur? Explain how blood glucose level returns to normal (homeostasis)
