What will be the temperature in 24 hours when the germinate seeds in the thermos flask?

The temperature of the germinating seeds in a thermos flask in 24 hours will depend on several factors, including the initial temperature of the seeds, the ambient temperature, and the insulation quality of the thermos. Generally, thermos flasks are designed to maintain temperature, so the seeds may remain warm if they were initially heated. However, without specific data on these conditions, it's difficult to predict the exact temperature after 24 hours.


What is the temperature of tap water placed outside in sun for 6 hours?

That would depend on many factors, such as the material the container is made of, the color of the container, how much water is in the container, and the starting temperature of the water. You really need to measure the temperature after six hours with a thermometer.


Why a starved liver has less glycogen then a well fed liver?

The blood-glucose level begins to drop several hours after a meal, leading to a decrease in insulin secretion and a rise in glucagon secretion; glucagon is secreted by the α cells of the pancreas in response to a low blood-sugar level in the fasting state. In same way,insulin signals the fed state, this fed condition leads to the secretion of insulin, which is one of the two most important regulators of fuel metabolism,the secretion of the hormone insulin by the β cells of the pancreas is stimulated by glucose. It stimulates glycogen synthesis in both muscle and the liver and suppresses gluconeogenesis by the liver.

What best describes the relationship of insulin to glucagon?

Glucagon releases stored sugar, in an emergency. Insulin is what you inject so that your body can make use of sugar. Glucagon works by releasing the sugar that is stored in the patient's liver very quickly. I would really only recommend using it on diabetics who have already passed out or whose blood sugar is too-low to eat anything. Otherwise, cake icing, orange juice, etc. are much easier and cheaper substitutes. Insulin, on the other hand, lowers the blood sugar by allowing your body to make use of glucose, and turn it in to energy. If you are wondering if you need to inject insulin to accout for the sugar that the Glucagon releases, I would recommend that you do not do so. If somebody was low-enough to need a Glucagon shot, their body is going to be burning extra calories to get back up-to-speed for a few hours, and they might go low again if you inject any more insulin. A few hours with high blood sugars will not even really hurt a diabetic, but a second low might.

How long does it take insulin to make an affect on your blood sugar?

Depends on the type of insulin -- in fact, the "onset time", "peak time" and "duration" of a particular insulin differs from one type to another. You're asking about "onset time", which varies from about 15 minutes to about 3 hours depending on the insulin type and the individual. Duration can be anywhere from 3 hours to 24, again depending. See the link below ("Types of Insulin and their action profiles") for typical onset, peak, and duration numbers for various commonly sold insulins.
