D) An increase in blood glucose concentration stimulates insulin secretion, which further increases the blood glucose concentration. 
A) A decrease in blood glucose concentration stimulates insulin secretion, which in turn further lowers the blood glucose concentration. 
B) An increase in blood glucose concentration stimulates insulin secretion, which in turn lowers the blood glucose concentration. 
C) A decrease in blood glucose concentration stimulates insulin secretion, which in turn increases the blood glucose concentration.
