Concept explainers
a.
To identify:
The hormones which indicate the signal cells to take up glucose.
Introduction:
Glucose is the simplest form of monosaccharides which is found in the body. The glucose in the blood decides the level of sugar in the body. The glucose is stored as glycogen in the muscles. The insulin is the hormone which controls the glucose level in the blood and glucagon is the peptide hormone released by pancreatic cells.
b.
To identify:
The hormones which signal liver cells to produce glucose.
Introduction:
Glucose is the simplest form of monosaccharides which is found in the body. The glucose in the blood decides the level of sugar in the body. The glucose is stored as glycogen in the muscles. The insulin is the hormone which controls the glucose level in the blood and glucagon is the peptide hormone released by pancreatic cells.
c.
To identify:
The hormones which are not produced in people with type I diabetes.
Introduction:
Glucose is the simplest form of monosaccharides which is found in the body. The glucose in the blood decides the level of sugar in the body. The glucose is stored as glycogen in the muscles. The insulin is the hormone which controls the glucose level in the blood and glucagon is the peptide hormone released by pancreatic cells.
