well, since you are quite scared of being judged, you doing this shows that you are an open person who is ready to conquer your fears. You seem very introverted and awkward on the outside but on the inside you just want friends and have a big heart.

I hope this helps and by no means was I trying to offend you.

Answer:

All organisms depend on the production of energy, in order to function. Most of them make use of glucose as the main material for extracting the necessary energy to survive. However, some of these organisms will use, or not need to use, oxygen, in conjunction with glucose, in order to be able to generte ATP, the molecule that is responsible for powering up a living organisms´ cellular activities. In order to achieve this formation of ATP, then, all organisms will need at least glucose present, and most, will require also the presence of oxygen, to generate ATP. The two mechanisms by which ATP is produced, then, are: aerobic and anaerobic respiration.

In similarities, these two processes have several. First, the two require a substrate to work with, which is glucose, or a source that can yield glucose molecules. The second is that both mechanisms are used to provide ATP to living organisms, and three, they both are ways to acquire energy.

However, there are also differences. The most important being that aerobic respiration requires not just glucose, but also oxygen, in order to produce ATP, while anaerobic respiration just needs glucose. The second most important is that anaerobic respiration yields much less ATP molecules than aerobic respiration. And the third difference is that while from the chemical reaction in aerobic respiration an organism gets water and carbon dioxide, the second reaction in anaerobic respiration yields lactic acid and also ethanol (fermentation).

Does diagnosis require lab test or imaging?

Often requires lab test or imaging

Is condition treatable?

Treatments can help manage condition, no known cure

Time taken for recovery

Can be lifelong

Diabetes insipidus is a hormonal disorder that results from decreased levels of anti-diuretic hormone (ADH), also known as vasopressin. This hormone reduction leads to reduced retention of water in the body. Commonly noted symptoms include severe thirst, and frequent, excessive urination. Medications and lifestyle changes are the main course of treatment. Treatment options are decided based on the type of diabetes insipidus.

Symptoms

Common symptoms include:

Severe thirst

Frequent urination where excessive diluted urine is excreted

Bed-wetting

Fussiness or inconsolable crying in children

Trouble sleeping

Fever

Vomiting

Diarrhea

Delayed growth

Weight loss

Treatments

Medications and lifestyle changes are the main course of treatment. Treatment options are decided based on the type of diabetes insipidus.

Medication

Hormone therapy: Taken as nasal spray, oral tablets, or injections, these are synthetic forms of ADH given to reduce the frequency of urination.

Desmopressin

Self care

Adequate water intake to avoid dehydration.

Reduce salt intake.

Avoid medications that increase urine output, after consultation with your doctor.

Avoid activities that cause dehydration.

Wear a medical alert badge or bracelet.
