What is the difference between type 1 and type 2 diabetes?
People with Type 1 make more insulin than people with Type 2
People with Type 1 don't make insulin and people with Type 2 don't make glucagon
People with Type 1 make ineffective glucagon, people with Type 2 make ineffective insulin
People with Type 1 don't make insulin, people with Type 2 make ineffective insulin
diabetes is a disease that affects your body's ability to produce or use ___.
energy
insulin
glucose
negative feedback
What is the function of insulin?
diagnose diabetes
turn glucose into energy
help glucose enter the cells of the body
Release glucose stored in the liver
When does deamination occur in the liver
during protein metabolism
during making bile
during detoxification
Which of these is NOT an example of homeostasis
The concentration of CO2 in the blood
Swallowing
Body temperature maintained 37 degrees
When glucose levels in the blood rise, your brain sends a signal to your pancreas. The pancreas releases insulin, which opens channels in cell membranes to allow glucose to enter the cell, lowering blood sugar levels. This is an example of a:
Positive Feedback Loop
Negative Feedback Loop
An example of a negative feedback loop is ...
Blood glucose regulation
Blood pressure regulation
Thermoregulation
All of the above
If the calcium in your blood decreases below homeostasis levels, a gland in the brain will sense the decrease and send a chemical message to your bones. Your bones will release calcium into the blood, bringing blood calcium levels back up. This is an example of what type of feedback?
Positive Feedback Response
Negative Feedback Loop
As you get dehydrated, your blood becomes thicker and harder to pump. Your kidneys will respond by stopping urine production, sending the water from urine into your bloodstream to thin your blood back to normal level. This is an example of what type of feedback?
Positive Feedback Response
Negative Feedback Loop
reverses the direction of change
positive feedback
effector
hypothalamus
negative feedback
