A monosaccharide that serves as a source of energy for all body cells and tissues?
glucose
Which part of your body doesn't use glucose?
Our body need energy to work so all of our body parts need glucose.
How does glucose travel from the blood in the capillaries to the body cells?
It travels through your blood via the capillaries. It is, in normal concentrations, harmless, but in high concentrations in the blood becomes a strong oxidizing agent, burning the exposed surfaces of tissues it contacts. (Google "Glucose toxicity") Glucose is not permitted to enter into the cells of your body tissues unless accompanied by a molecule of the hormone insulin. This gives your endocrine system control over energy use in the body. (Google "insulin", "diabetes mellitus")
Why would mitosis need to occur in the body?
so tissues in your body can grow and repair themselves
Are there any insulin independent tissues or organs?
Yes, there are insulin-independent tissues or organs in the body. Examples include the brain, liver, and kidney. These organs can uptake and utilize glucose without the presence of insulin. However, insulin is still important for regulating glucose levels in the body and its absence or dysfunction can lead to complications such as diabetes.

glucose
What is a monosacchride that serves as as source of energy for all body cells and tissues?
glucose
How does the circulatory system delivers oxygen and glucose to tissues?
blood provides oxygen to the body
Which part of your body doesn't use glucose?
Our body need energy to work so all of our body parts need glucose.
Why is glucose good for you?
Yes ...glucides are good for you ...they are carbohydrates , and we need these....the body converts these to glucose which in turn are converted into energy by the body .....
What type of hormone is insulin?
It is an endocrine (released within the body to affect other distant tissues) hormone that lowers blood glucose.
How is glucose helpful to the body?
Glucose( C6H12O6) is helpful for your body and is harmful because you need sugar to have energy, but to much sugar can mean buildup body fat. Plants & animals need sugar to survive for energy.

What effect does sugar have to human body?
Sugars, mainly saccharose, affects our body by increasing blood glucose levels, by acidifying blood which leads to worsening sore tissues and by increasing triglyceride levels once it is the main source of triglyceride in human body.
What is function of the blood vessels and capillaries?
The blood vessels, which include the capillaries, function to distribute nutrients such as glucose and oxygen to the body tissues and to carry wastes such as carbon dioxide and urea away from the tissues to be excreted.
Why is water useful in body process?
We need water because our body needs engry in the form of glucose. When two glucose combins it called as disuccharid it's not glucose. So the process of turning them into glucose is done by the water.
