When the body's blood glucose level rises, the pancreas secretes insulin and, as a result, the blood glucose level declines. When the blood glucose level is low, the pancreas secretes glucagon and, as a result, the blood glucose level rises. Such regulation of the blood glucose level is the result of _____.

Answer:

negative feedback

Step-by-step explanation:

the control of blood sugar level is good example of negative feedback mechanism. the whole loop of balancing blood glucose level is constantly in motion i.e one process triggers another process.

Glucagon causes blood-glucose levels to increase until they reach a high enough level for glucagon production to stop, and insulin production to start. This process is called a negative feedback loop, where the result of a process turns off the process.
