D3.3 Homeostasis Questionbank

Increased conversion of glucose into glycogen

Increased secretion of insulin by the pancreas

Increased blood glucose due to liver glycogen breakdown

Decreased appetite due to glucose suppression

Only brown fat functions this way

Only skeletal muscle and skin arterioles match their actions

All three effectors and actions are correctly paired

None of the effectors directly influence body temperature

Increased glucagon promotes glycogen synthesis in the liver

Decreased insulin triggers gluconeogenesis in muscle tissue

Elevated insulin promotes glucose uptake by target tissues

Reduced glucagon enhances ketone body production for energy

Sweating decreases after exercise

Vasodilation occurs in cold weather

Shivering begins in cold environments

Brown adipose tissue becomes active in infants

Medulla

Pituitary gland

Hypothalamus

Cerebellum

Glucagon

Adrenaline

Thyroxin

Cortisol

Their insulin regulation is impaired

Their effectors are no longer functioning properly

Their body is attempting to raise blood pressure

Their blood glucose is too low to support brain function

The patient has Type 1 diabetes

The insulin receptors are not functioning properly

Glucagon secretion is abnormally low

The pancreas is secreting too little insulin
