Amanda does fast once a month, How is the glucose homeostasis in her body maintained while she is fasting?
A. The blood sugar level decreases while fasting, the alpha cells in Amanda's pancreas releases glucagon into
the blood that stimulates the liver to breakdown glycogen and releases glucose in the blood. In this way, the
blood glucose level rises and maintains homeostasis.
B. The blood sugar level increases while fasting, the beta cells in Amanda's pancreas releases insulin into the
blood that stimulates the liver to take up glucose and convert it into glycogen also the body cells absorb more
glucose. In this way, the blood glucose level declines and maintains homeostasis.
C. The blood sugar level neither increases nor decreases while fasting; the beta cells in Amanda's pancreas
releases glucagon into the blood that stimulates the liver to breakdown glycogen and releases glucose in the
blood. In this way, the blood glucose level rises and maintains homeostasis.
D. The blood sugar level neither increases nor decreases while fasting the beta cells in Amanda's pancreas
releases insulin into the blood that stimulates the liver to take up glucose and convert it into glycogen also the
body cells absorb more glucose. In this way, the blood glucose level declines and maintains homeostasis.
