Diabetes Mellitus correct answers is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by increased levels of glucose in the blood (hyperglycemia) resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both (American Diabetes Association [ADA], 2016a). = decrease insulin or decrease insulin sensitivity. Diabetes Mellitus correct answers Not only affects carbohydrate metabolism but also protein and fat metabolism Action = Decrease sensitivity of insulin Defects in insulin (amount or action or both) Glucose correct answers fuels the cells of your body so they can work properly, BUT IT CAN NOT ENTER THE CELL WITHOUT THE HELP OF INSULIN Glucose correct answers - is one of the main sources of energy = energy is needed in order for body processes to occur. insulin correct answers - Glucose has always a partner = _________ - because glucose alone cannot enter the cell without the help of _________ = In DM - glucose cannot enter the cell due to ________ problem (either decrease in __________ or decrease sensitivity of the body to __________) hyperglycemia correct answers If glucose cannot enter the cell = _______________ (blood sugar will increase) → cells will not function properly → it could affect the different functions of the cells such as neurons, cells in the stomach, etc. Glycogen correct answers storage form of glucose on the liver. GLUCAGON correct answers - causes the liver to turn glycogen into glucose when the body needs it = During decrease blood sugar → pancreas produces ____________ in order to transform glycogen into glucose. exocrine and endocrine correct answers Pancreas - The pancreas has both ____________ and _____________ functions. pancreatic enzymes (important in digestion and motility) into the gastrointestinal (GI) tract through the pancreatic duct. correct answers The exocrine functions of pancreas include secretion of __________________________________________ into the gastrointestinal (GI) tract through the ______________________ insulin (beta cells), glucagon (alpha cells), and somatostatin (delta cells) directly into the bloodstream. correct answers The endocrine functions of pancreas include secretion of correct answers is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by increased levels of glucose in the blood (hyperglycemia) resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both (American Diabetes Association [ADA], 2016a). = decrease insulin or decrease insulin sensitivity.
