What microorganism produce the human protein that insulin dependent diabetics rely upon to uptake glucose from their bloodstream?
The insulin gene will be extracted from cells from an animal such as a pig, and placed into the loop of DNA in a microorganism. When the microorganism reproduces, the DNA gene will reproduce with it, and this is repeated again and again and the micro-organsms will produce insulin. Whe a sufficient amount of microorganisms have been grown, the insulin will be extracted and used in medicine

How is glucose absorbed into the bloodstream?
Glucose is absorbed into the bloodstream through a process called facilitated diffusion in the small intestine. Specialized proteins called glucose transporters help move glucose molecules from the intestine into the bloodstream, where it can be used for energy by the body's cells.
How is glucose transported through the body?
Glucose is transported through the body in the bloodstream. It is absorbed into the bloodstream from the intestines after digestion and released by the liver. Glucose is then taken up by cells for energy or stored for later use.
What three simple sugars are absorbed into the bloodstream?
The three simple sugars absorbed into the bloodstream are glucose, fructose, and galactose.
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 does sugar enter the bloodstream?
When you eat foods containing sugar, it is broken down into glucose in the digestive system. The glucose is then absorbed into the bloodstream through the walls of the small intestine and transported to cells throughout the body to provide energy.
What type of tissue is dependent on plasma glucose levels?
Adipose tissue is dependent on plasma glucose levels for energy storage and regulation of metabolism. It can uptake glucose from the bloodstream and store it as fat when glucose levels are high.
Is a insulin pump for diabetics an example of medical advancement?
Absolutely! Insulin pumps provide insulin dependent (T1D) diabetics the best chance of replacing a non-functioning pancreas. Continuous Glucose Monitor Systems (CGMS) are another advancement allowing diabetics a window into glucose levels.
How do diabetics control their glucose levels?
pahd
Do diabetics lack glucose?
No they lack insulin in the pancreas
Is hydrogenated glucose safe for diabetics?
yes it is good
What affects does crack have on diabetics?
can raise glucose levels
How is glucose absorbed into the bloodstream?

Are there different types of diabeties?
Yes, there are. Some diabetics are not "insulin dependent", meaning they do not require injections in order to live. These people may have low insulin production or problems with glucose absorption, but they can usually control the disease by eating the right foods, getting adequate exercise, etc -- these people are called "Type II Diabetics". There are also insulin dependent diabetics, or those suffering from Type I diabetes. People with Type I must have insulin shots in order to live.
What cell is most dependent on a supply of glucose is?
wat cell is most dependent on glucose
What is your sugar number?
It's the level of glucose in your bloodstream. It varies throughout the day, particularly when you eat. Diabetics should always test their blood sugar PRIOR to eating. MY last blood sugar was 82, prior to eating of course!!
What mineral is required for glucose uptake into the cells and are in mushrooms?
Chromium (usually sold as Chromium Picolinate). Chromium is a trace mineral and is well proven to regular glucose. Many diabetics (and pre-diabetics) swear by it.
What doest the liver remove from the bloodstream?
The liver removes glucose
