Glucose is sugar and you need it in your body(blood) to keep you running which is why we say blood sugar levels and if you are diabetic your blood sugar levels are wrong
What is the carbohydrate that is made in the human body?

What hormone in the human body controls blood levels?
cortisol
What is renal threshold of glucose?
Renal threshold is what happens when there is an overabundance of glucose in the body, the blood glucose levels will then get above 170mg/100ml (normal is 70mg/100ml).
When blood glucose levels are high and the glucose is not utilized for cellular respiration the human body will store this glucose in the liver and muscles in what form?
It is stored in the form of glycogen.
Adiponectin is involved in regulating what in the human body?

When you are hungry, your body is telling you that it's levels of glucose is low. The body will then begin to burn stored sugar and release it into your bloodstream.
What happens if blood glucose levels are not stable?

What keeps the levels of glucose in the body at stable levels?
Insulin.
What are some examples of homeostasis in the human body?
Examples of homeostatic mechanisms in the body include:internal body temperature regulation,blood-glucose levels,water and ion concentration in the body.
What happens if blood glucose levels are not kept stable?
The kidneys may excrete glucose in the urine. very high blood glucose levels can damage almost every system and cell in the body, including the coronary artery. In other terms, diabetes can occur.
What percentage of carbohydrates can be converted into glucose in the human body?
Once digested, 100% of carbohydrates are converted to glucose. However, approximately 40% of protein foods are also converted to glucose, but this has minimal effect on blood glucose levels.
Name the fuel the human body burns?
