Summary Introduction
To determine:
The specific molecule which is being regulated by the drug, when a patient is given a new drug that decreases blood sugar levels.
Concept introduction:
A drug is intentionally used to lower the levels of blood sugar in the patient. The drug will combine with the simpler forms of sugar. The glucose is present in the simpler form of sugar which makes may combine as monomer units and form glycogen. The glycogen is a complex form of sugar found in tissues.

Autism is a condition that is generally characterized by difficulties in communicating, understanding abstract concepts, and forming relationships with other people. Recent studies show that children with autism tend to have low levels of oxytocin. Oxytocin nasal spray has been tried as a medical intervention.
List two main functions of oxytocin in the body.
The role of insulin is to signal the cells to uptake glucose from the blood. Is this a positive or negative feedback loop? Explain what would happen if the other type of feedback loop were to occur.
