The GTT is usually administered after an abnormal urine test. Doctors use glucose tolerance testing to monitor the amount of glucose in the patient's blood at a given moment in time and to see if their body reacts properly in response to the glucose. If the glucose levels rise drastically and don't fall back down this indicates that there is a high chance that the patient has diabetes. The insulin test can determine the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes; if the levels of insulin in the blood are high, the patient has Type 2 diabetes, and if there is no insulin in the blood the patient has Type 1.

Which of these technology tools would best create a healthy household environment
antoniya [11.8K]

Correct answer choice is :


<h2>C)  Steam mops and water filters</h2><h2 /><h2>Explanation:</h2><h2 />

A steam mop is a mop that uses steam to clean carpets and rugs. Unlike a regular mop, which needs cleaning tools such as bleach or detergent, a steam mop utilizes heat from steam to sanitize the floors. A water filter produces clean, healthy water for cooking, as well as drinking, at the luxury of tap water. Water filters decrease the hazard of gastrointestinal infection by more than 33 percent by killing cryptosporidium and giardia from drinking water.
