A acclimation B osmosis C photosynthesis D respiration 3. Which mechanism occurs shortly after eating in order to maintain appropriate blood glucose levels in the body?

B The pancreas secretes insulin due to a decrease in blood sugar. Insulin then causes cells throughout the body to take in and process glucose. C The pancreas secretes insulin due to an increase in blood sugar. Insulin then causes the liver to release stored glucose into the bloodstream. D The pancreas secretes insulin due to a decrease in blood sugar. Insulin then causes the liver to release stored glucose into the bloodstream. 4.

8 21. Look at this graph a scientist made about the number of insects found in small plots measuring 16 square meters. The plots were placed at different latitudes.
