Explain the image and what’s going on.
Most hormone systems are
negative feedback systems
Negative feedback means that when
enough hormone is in the body, the
body stops producing the hormone

You eat. Glucose (sugar)
in the blood increases.
Increased glucose is detected by receptors
that notify the brain. It sends a message
to the pancreas to produce insulin.
The Pancreas
head of pancreas
tail of pancreas
pancreatic duct
Pancreas stops making insulin.
additional pancreatic duct
Blood glucose level drops as
it is removed by the cells.
Insulin tells muscle and liver to take up
glucose from the bloodstream and use it for energy
or store it for later. Brain reduces appetite.
