-Johnny eats 3 glazed donuts for breakfast, which causes his blood glucose
levels to increase. In response to this, his pancreas secretes insulin, which

decreases Johnny's blood glucose and he starts to feel hungry again. Johnny
is studying for a test & doesn't have time to go home for lunch. As his blood
glucose levels continue to drop, his pancreas then secretes glucagon.
Johnny's liver then responds by releases glucose into the blood. Which of the
following statements about this scenario is correct?
1. Blood sugar level is the set point in this scenario
2. The release of insulin helps with negative feedback
3. The release of glucagon helps with negative feedback
4. The release of insulin helps with positive feedback
5. The release of glucagon helps with positive feedback - -1, 2, 3

person saw Bob beginning to faint and caught him just in time. When Bob
awakes he is told that he fainted due to orthostatic hypotension; a rapid drop
