This could lead to high blood sugar levels and bring about steroid produced glucose. 
The use of steroids can cause significantly high blood sugar levels. These hormones decrease the effectiveness of insulin and make your liver dump more glucose into the bloodstream. Therefore the insulin amounts will need to be decreased as steroid levels decrease.

almond37 [142]

Answer:

sarcoplasmic reticulum deteriorates and ATP production is stopped

Explanation:

Rigor mortis is the third stage of death characterized by stiffening of joints and muscles in body. The stiffening occurs because muscles are not able to return to the relaxed state. There are two reasons for rigor mortis, depletion of ATP and increase in calcium concentration in cytosol. Due to these factors the actin-myosin crossbridge is not able to break and the muscles remain in contracted state.

Sarcoplasmic reticulum deteriorates and calcium is released into the cytosol. Sarcolemma ( covering of muscle fiber ) also breaks down releasing extra calcium into the cytosol. Calcium is responsible for formation of actin-myosin cross bridge and when its concentration increases the bridge is formed continuously leading to stiffening of muscles and joints.

rosijanka [135]

They obtain energy from the sun and produce food for other organisms. Organism in level B is a herbivore which feed upon the plants to gain food and energy. In level C organisms that feed upon herbivores i.e the carnivores lies. At level D lies the microorganisms that feed upon dead remains of high order animals and plants. Hence, organisms at level D are called heterotrophs.  

Thus, option 4 is correct
