B. Stomach
C. Pancreas
D. Heart
What is the function of insulin?
A. Lowers blood sugar levels
B. Increases blood sugar levles
C. Increases sweating
D. Breaks down carbohydrates into simple sugars
Insulin causes what organ to take up glucose?
A. Stomach
B. Liver
C. Pancreas
D. Blood
What does glucagon do?
A. Increases blood glucose levels
B. Decreases blood glcuose levels
C. Increases the breakdown of lipids
D. Increases blood flow to the pancreas
The person with diabetes blood glucose level is
A. lower than the normal persons
B. higher than the normal persons
C. The same as the normal person
People who have diabetes often need to take insulin injections. Why do they have to take insulin?
A. Too help restore their body temperature
B. The body makes too many antibodies which attacks the pancreas
C. Too help restore their heart rate
D. The body does not make insulin, so they cannot regulate their blood glucose levels
The human body works to keep its blood glucose level within a range. When you exercise, your body breaks down glucose to make ATP. What happens to a person's blood glucose level after 45 minutes of excerise?
A. Glucose levels increases
B. Glucose levels decrease
C. Glucose levels remain the same
Why does your glucose level change when you excerise?
A. Your body uses glucose for photosynthesis
B. Your body breaks down glucose during cellular respiration. Cellular respiration makes energy for your cells.
C. Your body makes glucose when you excerise because movement causes carbohydrates to join together and form complex molecules like glucose
D. Your body makes glucose during cell division. Cell division only occurs during excercise.
The hormones insulin and glucagon have important roles in regulating blood glucose levels. Insulin decreases the blood glucose level, and glucagon increases the blood glucose level. How would the body respond if glucose levels decrease (go down)?
A. The body will releases insulin
B. The body will release glucagon
C. The body will release both glucose and insulin
D. If glucose levels decrease, you will automatically die.
Another example of homeostasis is
A. The chest cavity expands when the diaphragm contracts
B. The biceps muscle relaxes when the tricep muscle contract
C. Digestive enzymes are released when food enters the stomach
D. The kidneys make more urine when you drink a lot of water
