What else can I help you with?
Homeostasis is illustrated in the human body by the effects of insulin on the amount of?
glucose in the bloodstream. When blood glucose levels rise, the pancreas releases insulin to help cells uptake glucose for energy production, thereby lowering blood glucose levels. Conversely, when blood glucose levels drop, the pancreas reduces insulin secretion, allowing the liver to release glucose into the bloodstream to maintain stable levels.
How would a doctor know the pancreas is damaged?
the amount of insulin in her blood is wrong
How do you get help for Polycycstic Ovarian Syndrome?
PCOS is connected to insulin resistance. When a person eats a lot of sugar or carbohydrates (which is basically a long chain of glucose molecules hooked together), the body had to work hard to handle the sugar by producing insulin. Eventually the cells in their body becomes insensitive to the effects of the insulin (insulin resistance). To handle this problem of insulin resistance their body begins to produce even higher levels of insulin. This continues until their pancreas reaches the maximum amount of insulin it can produce, and when the insulin resistance increases again, their blood sugar begins to rise out of control. This effects the glands as they are a communication system on to the other and effects the ovaries. You can read more at www.mcvitamins.com/pcos.htm
Why the increase in insulin secretion in response to parasympathetic stimulation is consistent with the maintenance of homeostasis?
I'm not an expert on this subject, but I do know that insulin levels have to keep up with the amount of sugar in your blood. Your cells can't use the sugar to produce energy without the insulin to help them absorb it. Homeostasis is the chemical reactions in the body, so the insulin must help cells absorb sugar so they can have the chemical reaction that produces energy. Like I said, I'm not the expert, but I hope that helps!
What are uses of insulin?
The use of insulin is lowering the amount of sugar in the blood in diabetic patiens.
What is serum insulin?
It means the amount of insulin found in the watery part of the blood called serum.
Can you eat how many carbohydrates you want while having type 1 diabetes as long as you take the right amount of insulin for it?
as long as you have the right amount of insulin for it you can. i have type 1 diabetes and am also on an insulin pump, which pumps a fast acting insulin in through a small tube every hour or when programed to. it is based on the amount of carbs you intake, not serves. so yes, as long as you have the insulin you can.
Name the protein that controls the amount of sugar in the blood?
Insulin is the protein that controls the amount of sugar in the blood. It is produced by the pancreas and helps regulate blood sugar levels by promoting the uptake of glucose from the blood into cells for energy.
Is sugar a stimulant?
Not necessarily. Sugar is not a stimulant by itself, however, it causes the production of insulin. Insulin is a hormone vital to regulating the amount of energy in your body. Therefore, a high insulin level will results in effects mimicking a moderate stimulant. However, this obviously would take a large amount of sugar.
What is it when you take in the same amount of calories you need is?
homeostasis
What are the units injected by a diabetic?
It's an agreed amount of insulin.
If you could lower your dosage of insulin by taking other drugs or meds should you do so or would you be better off to just continue with the insulin?
This depends on the amount of glucose in your blood,"glycemia" if it's really low you should consider reducing the amount of insulin.
