1. Energy is stored in the body as glucose. glucose and glycogen. glycogen and fat. glucose and fat. 2. When blood sugar rises after a meal, the pancreas releases insulin. This causes cells to take up excess glucose. When blood sugar falls, glucagon is released from the pancreas. This causes cells to break down glycogen into glucose, which is then released into the blood. Which of the following aspects of this system best explains why it is an example of homeostasis? The release of insulin causes blood sugar levels to fall. The release of glucagon causes blood sugar levels to rise. The pancreas and liver work together as an organ system. The system works to keep blood sugar levels within a narrow range. 3. Thermoregulation in the human body directly involves all of the following organ systems, EXCEPT the ________ system. endocrine muscular nervous urinary

The sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous system inhibit digestive and sexual responses. They increase heart rate and blood pressure, preparing the body for action and restoring the body's resources. They also decrease heart rate and blood pressure, constrict bronchioles and pupils. They prepare the body for fight or flight.

The response to a stressor can be split up into two phases. 1) The fight or flight response, which can cause meaningful physiological, behavioral, and morphological changes over the course of seconds. And 2) the stress response, a secondary hormonal response that induces changes over the course of minutes. Which of the following hormones is/are part of the secondary stress response? (1) Glucocorticosteroids (2) All answers are correct (3) Glucocorticoids (4) Some answers are correct (5) Cortisol (6) Adrenaline (7) Corticosterone
