Insulinis ahormone normally produced by the beta cells of the pancreas. It functions to enable excess glucose to enter body tissuesfor energy and fat cells for storage. For those who do not produce insulin (type 1 Diabetes) or who have an inadequateinsulin supply and/or insulin resistance (type 2 diabetes), insulincan bemanufactured in the lab from recombinant DNA.

Facilitated is an example of what?
The glucose transporter that is activated by insulin (glut 4) is a prime example.

A decrease in blood glucose that causes the inhibition of insulin is an example of?
A decrease in blood glucose that causes the inhibition of insulin secretion is an example of a negative feedback mechanism. In this case, low blood glucose levels trigger the inhibition of insulin release to prevent further lowering of blood sugar and maintain homeostasis.
How may units of insulin in 1.2mg?
To convert milligrams of insulin to units, you need to know the concentration of the insulin preparation. For example, regular human insulin typically has a concentration of 100 units per milliliter (U-100). Since 1 mg of insulin is approximately equal to 28.5 units, 1.2 mg would be about 34.2 units of insulin. Always consult a healthcare professional for accurate dosing and conversion specific to the insulin type being used.
