Endocrine system

Which of the following statements describes a negative feedback response? After a meal, blood sugar levels in the body rise; insulin is secreted to lower blood sugar levels. A person who loses 3 pounds continues to diet to lose an additional 10 pounds. The arrival of platelets at a wound site stimulates the recruitment of more platelets to form a clot. The onset of contractions during childbirth stimulates the release of a hormone that stimulates further contractions.

After a meal, blood sugar levels in the body rise; insulin is secreted to lower blood sugar levels.

Which of these is an example of negative feedback? As a blood clot begins to form, the process of its formation gets faster and faster. After you eat, glucagon stimulates an increase in blood sugar levels. After you eat, insulin stimulates the lowering of blood sugar levels.

Once labor begins, contractions increase in frequency and intensity.

Given that adult penguins don't grow from year to year, how would you explain this finding? During the breeding season, penguins produce new biomass when they lay eggs and feed their chicks. For several months after hatching, penguin chicks use a large proportion of the energy available to them to grow. At certain times, penguins use up their fat stores, losing considerable weight. At certain times, penguins store considerable energy as fat, putting on weight in the process.
