What else can I help you with?
Who would suffer hypoglycemia if they get low blood glucose levels from excess insulin action?
Diabetes
What type of diabetes would one have if there was excess glucose in urine?
ketoacidosis
It could be excess i?
It could be excess insulin secretion from your pancreas, but high glucose foods may cause this, and the enzymes would help
Which factor would not increase the production of glucose by photosynthesis in plants?
excess carbon dioxide
Why would your family physician at the turn of the twentieth century taste your urine?
To see if it's sweet. This would mean there is insufficient glucose reabsorption by the kidney to the body. There will be excess glucose in the filtrate.
How do animals store glucose?
Animals primarily store glucose in the form of glycogen in their liver and muscles. Glycogen serves as a readily accessible energy reserve that can be broken down into glucose when needed. Excess glucose can also be converted into fat for long-term energy storage.
What would the increase of insulin result to?
a decrease in the amount of glucose in the blood
What is excess glucose stored as?
glycogen
Would glucose give a positive result with the Biuret test?
No, glucose would not give a positive result with the Biuret test. The Biuret test is specific for detecting proteins, not sugars like glucose. It works by reacting with peptide bonds in proteins to form a colored complex.
Can you tell me what amount of blood sugar range is normal?
Fasting blood glucose should be between 70-100. A normal blood glucose would be about 125. If your fasting glucose is above 125, you may be at a high risk for developing diabetes. Your blood sugar should never be 60 or below, this is hypoglycemia and it means you could pass out or have a seizure.
What would you expect if you hydrolyze cellulose?
Hydrolyzing cellulose breaks down the long cellulose chains into glucose molecules. This process requires enzymes to catalyze the reaction. As a result, you would expect to obtain glucose as the main product of cellulose hydrolysis.
What effect would elevated cortisol levels have on blood glucose levels?
One function of cortisol is to decrease the cellular use of glucose while increasing both the available glucose (by promoting the brakedown of glycogen) and the conversion of amino acids to carbohydrates. Therefore, the net result of elevated cortisol levels would be an elevation of blood glucose.
