Mice from a certain lab strain remain healthy as long as you feed them regularly and do not let them exercise. After they eat, their blood glucose level rises slightly and then declines to a homeostatic level. However, if these mice fast or exercise at all, their blood glucose drops dangerously. Which hypothesis best explains their problem

Answer:

These mice have lack of hormones that regulates the concentration of glucose in the body.

Step-by-step explanation:

The body of these mice produced less or no adrenaline hormone that is responsible for the increase of glucose in the blood due to which blood glucose drops dangerously. If these mice has that adrenaline hormone and it works properly so blood glucose does not drops dangerously in these mice so we can say that lack of adrenaline hormone is responsible for this problem.
