Q.1
Homeostasis in the human body is often maintained by a:
  • neutral feedback loop
  • solar feedback loop
  • positive feedback loop
  • negative feedback loop
Q.2
When glucose levels in the blood rise, your brain sends a signal to your pancreas. The pancreas releases insulin, which opens channels in cell membranes to allow glucose to enter the cell, lowering blood sugar levels.
  • Positive Feedback Response
  • Negative Feedback Loop
Q.3
What short term storage polysaccharide is glucose converted to?
  • Glucagon
  • Glycogen
  • Estrogen
  • Starch
Q.4
When you are cold, you shiver and your blood vessels contract, which warms you up. When you are hot, you sweat and your blood vessels expand, which cools you down.
  • Positive Feedback Response
  • Negative Feedback Loop
Q.5

  • Bread
  • Yam
  • Cheese
  • Flour

Q.7
Which reagent is is used to test for glucose?
  • Ethanol
  • Benedict’s solution
  • Biuret solution
  • Iodine solution
