Answer:  Insulin is a hormone, which is secreted by the pancreas to regulate the sugar levels in the bloodstream.

Explanation:

Insulin is a protein hormone if take orally, will get digested in the digestive tract, it will not be able to affect the target site of action.

Insulin gets denatured in the digestive tract. Thus it will not be able to control the blood sugar levels.

Nancy has taken the insulin dose orally, the insulin will get denatured in the digestive system, it will not function and Nancy will remain hyperglycemic after the consumption.

Which of the following exposure factors will produce the greatest receptor exposure?
earnstyle [38]

400 mA, 70 ms is the following exposure factors will produce the greatest receptor exposure.

C: 400 mA, 70 ms

<u>Explanation:</u>

As SID builds, the introduction rate diminishes and receptor presentation diminishes. SID and the mAs required to keep up the introduction to the IR have a straightforwardly corresponding relationship (as the SID builds, the mAs required to keep up presentation to the IR increments by a corresponding sum).

An expanded SID likewise decreases amplification (size twisting). The most extreme SID ought to be utilized when conceivable to limit amplification. Infrequently, however, the SID can be purposefully diminished for amplification. SID influences size yet not shape twisting.
