Chapter 37.5, Problem 2TYK
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
To maintain homeostasis, blood glucose concentration is controlled by a system of checks and balances. In the absorptive state, the concentration of blood glucose increases after a meal, and the concentration decreases in the post-absorptive state. Exercise activates post-absorptive pathways.
