What sudden illness results from too little or too much sugar in the person's blood?
Hypoglycemia (from too little sugar or too much insulin) is an emergency causing unconsciousness, coma, brain damage and death. It can usually be treated at home with sugar and food. Diabetic Ketoacidosis (from too little insulin) is an emergency causing lethargy, dehydration, fever, blood acidity, breathing trouble, coma, and death. Once advanced, it can only be treated in a hospital using specific fluids, insulin, and monitoring. It's not caused by too much sugar in the blood though you will generally see that at the same time. Hyperglycemia (too much sugar in the blood) is deadly in the long term, causing blindness, gangrene in limbs, heart and kidney disease, but it's not a "sudden illness" since it takes months or years to cause the worst side effects.

How does negative feedback help maintain homeostasis in the body?
Negative feedback is where increase in a process results in another acting to bring it back to normal. An example is in the control of blood sugar. After a meal there is a large increase in blood sugar, this results in the body producing more insulin. The insulin causes the blood sugar to be converted to glycogen which is stored in the liver and muscles and a fall in blood sugar. If one does not eat for a long time the blood sugar begins to fall. Less insulin is produced and glycogen is converted to sugar to maintain a normal sugar level. This is negative feedback
