The hormone insulin enhances the transport of glucose (sugar) from the blood into most body cells. Its secretion is controlled by a negative-feedback system between the concentration of glucose in the blood and the insulin-secreting cells. Therefore, which of the following statements is correct? A decrease in blood glucose concentration stimulates insulin secretion, which in turn further towers blood glucose concentration. An increase in blood glucose concentration stimulates insulin secretion, which in turn lowers blood glucose concentration. A decrease in blood glucose concentration stimulates insulin secretion, which in turn increases blood glucose concentration. An increase in blood glucose concentration stimulates insulin secretion, which in turn further increases blood glucose concentration. None of the preceding is correct.
All else being equal, a warm chameleon sitting on a sunny tree branch will experience a decrease in body temperature due to conduction if: O It changes color, and its new hue is a lighter color, reducing the amount of energy the chameleon absorbs from the sun. A cold breeze moves over the chameleon, transferring heat from the warmer chameleon to the cooler, moving ain. It opens its mnouth, allowing water to evaporate from its tongue and cheeks. The branch is cooler than the chameleon, and heat moves directly from the warmer animal to the cooler branch.
