Insulin controlls how the glucose injested is turned into fat. It also controls how much is removed to be turned into glycogen in the liver and muscles. It controls the amount of glucose transported to cells and respiration. Therefore, when we eat our pancreas supplies more insulin to be able to cope with the levels of sugar that we take in after meal times.
Diabetics can produce too much insulin or too little insulin. Insulin injections need to be taken before meal times (consult a doctor) for diabetics in order to get the sugar to the cells. If the insulin is not administrated then the body will use reserves of glucose from the fat and muscles to respire and grow etc.

When blood volume decreases does blood pressure increase?
no
Insulin causes a a decrease in the concentration of blood glucose b an increase in the concentration of blood glucose?
A. A decrease in glucose. Unless your body is as strange as mine. I'm trying to figure out why my glucose increases when I increase my insulin.
How are insulin and blood sugar related?
insulin helps transport the blood sugar into cells were sugar is needed. insulin is related to blood sugar cause insulin can lower blood sugar level.
What is an example of negative feedback?
An example of negative feedback would be a secretion of greater amount of insulin to lower the blood sugar level, and then secretion of greater amount of glucagon to increase the blood sugar level, and then a secretion of a greater amount of insulin to lower the blood sugar level..... etc.
What condition causes insulin to be released by beta cells?
The condition that causes insulin to be released by beta cells is a high level of glucose in the blood. When blood glucose levels rise after a meal, beta cells in the pancreas detect this increase and secrete insulin to help regulate glucose levels by allowing cells to absorb and use glucose for energy.
When blood volume decreases does blood pressure increase?
no
What is the feedback mechanism of insulin?
An increase in blood sugar levels cause the release of the hormone insulin by the pancreas. Insulin then lowers this blood sugar level restoring it to original non-lethal blood glucose levels.
What is functions of glucagon and insulin?
Insulin decrease blood glucose level.Glucon increase glucose level.
What would the increase of insulin result to?
a decrease in the amount of glucose in the blood
What is the most immediate response to a high level of blood sugar in a human increase?
The release of insulin
What kind of organism is insulin?
Insulin is not an organism. It is not alive. Insulin is a protein hormone that is active within our bodies. It is secreted by our pancreas after meals when our blood sugar levels are high and tells the cells in our body to take glucose from the blood and store it as glycogen.
Does insulin increase blood pressure glucose or calcium?
Insulin takes glucose from the blood and converts it glycogen that can be stored in the liver and muscles.Insulin can increase blood pressure in a reaction called metabolic syndrome. It decreases glucose and developing studies show that developing diabetes may increase calcium levels which can affect artery calcium deposits. These deposits are associated with high blood pressure.
Insulin causes a a decrease in the concentration of blood glucose b an increase in the concentration of blood glucose?
A. A decrease in glucose. Unless your body is as strange as mine. I'm trying to figure out why my glucose increases when I increase my insulin.
What should a physician do to treat insulin shock?
c, increase the gucose level in the blood
What are some types of diabetes treatment?
For insulin- dependent diabetes, insulin is required for treatment. Some patients can simply inject insulin before or after meals, while others need a constant supply through an insulin pump. Blood sugar levels are tested throughout the day to ensure a proper level of insulin.
How often does an insulin dependent diabetic take blood sugar levels during the day?
At least 4 times, especially before/after meals.
When blood glucose level rises the pancreas secretes insulin and as a result blood glucose level declines When blood glucose level is low the pancreas secretes glucagon and as a result blood gluc?
Insulin decrease glucose level.Glucogon increase glucose level.
