BioFlix Activity: Homeostasis - Regulating Blood Sugar Body cells take up more glucose. Pancreas releases glucagon. Pancreas releases insulin. Liver breaks down glycogen and releases glucose to the blood. High blood glucose. Glucose level. Blood glucose decreases to normal. Homeostasis: Normal blood glucose level. Low blood glucose. Blood glucose increases to normal. Liver takes up glucose and stores it as glycogen.

The liver breaks down glycogen and releases glucose into the blood. Blood glucose decreases to normal. The pancreas releases insulin. Liver takes up glucose and stores it as glycogen. High blood glucose Glucose level Homeostasis: Normal blood glucose level Blood glucose increases to normal. Glucose level Low blood glucose Body cells take up more glucose. The pancreas releases glucagon.
(a) If blood glucose level rises, (b) If blood glucose level falls, Liver breaks down and releases glucose into the bloodstream. Liver converts glycogen to glucose. Glucose is stored as liver glycogen. Liver releases glucose into the bloodstream. Homeostasis: Normal blood glucose level. Pancreas secretes glucagon. Pancreas secretes insulin.
