Introduction: Glucose is one of the few chemical constituents of the blood that can change noticeably in its concentration. Many diseases cause a change in glucose metabolism but the most frequent cause of an increase in blood glucose is diabetes mellitus. The early detection of diabetes is important to avoid the many complications of the disease. The glucose tolerance test commonly done by recommended level for adults of a 75 g glucose drink to be consumed within a 5 min time period. The timing

You just reviewed type of carbohydrates. Glucose is a simple sugar called a monosaccharide ‚ whereas starch contains compound carbon chains and is a polysaccharide . 5. Polysaccharides are formed by a dehydration synthesis reaction between monosaccharides. What does this mean? Water molecules are removed from the bond. 6. For each of the following tests‚ please circle which substance would give a positive result: a. Benedict’s test - glucose tap water oil (lipid)) starch

Homeostasis: The process of the body maintaining a constant internal environment‚ despite any external changes. Homeostasis ensures that the following are kept the same: Body temperature Amount of water in our body Blood glucose levels Breathing rate Heart rate How are things kept the same? 1. Receptors: They detect a change in the things such as temperature 2. Processing: Centre receives information and coordinates a response 3. Effects: Produce a response that ensures our body temperature stays at 37°C

evolved than MgSO₄. In the second set-up‚ six Smith fermentation tubes were used each containing different 15mL solution (starch‚ lactose‚ sucrose‚ glucose‚ fructose or distilled H₂O). the tubes were then added with 15 mL distilled H2O and 15 mL 10% yeast suspension. Here‚ results show that fructose had the highest rate of respiration followed by glucose‚ sucrose‚ lactose‚ starch and H₂O. Thus‚ simpler substrate would mean higher rate of respiration.

Insulin degludec Insulin degludec is an ultra-long-acting modified human insulin in which the B30 amino acid is omitted and a glutamic acid spacer links a 16-carbon fatty di-acid chain to the B29 amino acid. Deguldec forms multihexamers following SQ injection‚ leading to a slow release of insulin monomers into the bloodstream and a prolonged duration of action. The half-life of degludec is about 25 hours and its duration of action more than 42 hours. Flat insulin levels are seen within 3 days of

There are four structural levels of the body. Cells‚ tissues‚ organs and organ system. Cells are the basic structure and make up tissues. Two or more tissues make up the organs and the organ system are 2 or more organs that function together. One of the main health benefits of exercising is that it helps normalize the glucose‚ leptin‚ insulin levels by increasing insulin/leptin receptor sensitivity. This optimizes our overall health and prevents chronic diseases. Exercising has the capability to

and NIDDM are the major types. Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM‚ type 1) is frequently arisen when the immune system recognizes β-cells of pancreatic islet and destroys them. As a result‚ the body is not able to metabolize glucose properly due to lack of insulin production. It is usually affected young adults who are less than forty years old‚ and characterized by polyuria‚ polydipsia‚ polyphagia‚ weight loss‚ nausea and vomiting. On the other hand‚ non insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM
