Diabetes is a(n) ________ disorder because insulin is a ________.

Afina-wow [57]

I believe the correct answer is Diabetes is an endocrine disorder because insulin is a hormone.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Insulin is a hormone produced by the endocrine gland called the pancreas and specifically the β-cells of the Islets of Langerhans in the pancreas. These cells produce the polypeptide hormone called insulin that undertakes metabolism of sugar.

<h2>Further Explanation:</h2>

The endocrine system is part of the major systems of the body and its function is control metabolism, growth, homeostasis and sexual function. It uses chemical messengers called hormones that can either be protein in nature since they are formed by chains of amino acids or steroid in nature. Amino acid based hormones like bind to specific receptors on the surface of their target cells to cause changes in DNA transcription which will produce a response in the target cells. On the other hand, steroid cells are lipophilic (lipid loving) and they can pass through the membrane of the target cells and enter into the cell to produce a desired response. Their mode of communication is slower and lasts longer compared to the nervous system that uses electrical impulses. The organs that produce hormones are called endocrine glands are usually produce the hormones due to chemical changes in the the body. e.g. the hormone insulin is secreted in response to sugar levels lowering beyond the required concentration. Diabetes is caused by a condition which causes the β-cells of the Islets of Langerhans in the pancrease to be defective and not produce insulin so there is no insulin to metabolize the excess sugar in the body. This is type 1 or juvenile diabetes or diabetes insipidus. The other kind of diabetes is type 2 diabetes also called diabetes mellitus which is a lifestyle condition when a person takes food with high sugar levels and does not exercise or do any mitigation to reduce their sugar levels. This overwhelms the insulin and the person develops diabetes and loses more water via the kidney.

The phenomenon, where dark forms of moths become more prevalent than light forms in industrialized areas, is known as

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

industrial melanism

Explanation:

The phenomenon being described is known as industrial melanism. Like mentioned, this refers to the prevalence of darker colored varieties of different animals (especially moths) in more industrial areas which allow them to better camouflage themselves as opposed to their lighter-colored relatives. The ability to better camouflage themselves ultimately keeps them alive long enough to reproduce and pass on the prevalent gene to the next generation.
