Unlike endocrine glands, exocrine gland RELEASE SECRETIONS OUTSIDE OF THE BODY.

There are two types of glands in the body, the endocrine and the exocrine glands. The endocrine glands are ductless glands and their secretions are normally released directly into the blood stream. The exocrine glands on the other hand have ducts, through which their secretions are release outside the body. An example of this is the sweat gland.

observations made of bacteria culture once a week over a month period is an example of what type of information

xz_007 [3.2K]

There are three different types of observation methods for the purpose of research. These three methods include the structured observation, participant observation, and the field experiments.

The structured observation is the method of data collection which is done without the direct involvement of the researcher with the participants. the participant observation is the type of observation which is used in the experiments involving qualitative research. The field experiment is the method of observation when the experiment rules are applied in the real world.

Among the given three types of observations, the structured observation is the type of observation that is used while observing the bacteria once a week for a period of a month.

Hence, the answer is structured observation.

Answer:

Blood sugar regulation in a diabetic patient is done by

Injecting prescribed quantity of hormone insulin after definite time intervals.
Consuming prescribed amount of sugars.
Injecting glucagon to maintain blood sugar level if alpha cells of the pancreas are also non-functional.

Explanation:

The concentration of sugar in the blood is regulated by the hormone, insulin, produced in the pancreatic beta cells in normal person and injected from outside in a diabetic person.
When the concentration of glucose in the blood is high, the insulin signals the hepatocytes to express their glucose transporters to take up the excess glucose from blood and convert them to glycogen.
When concentration of sugar in the blood is low, another hormone called glucagon, released from the alpha cells of the pancreas, signals the liver to carry out glycogenolysis (breakdown of glycogen to glucose) and release the glucose into the blood. This would maintain the glucose level in the blood.
In a diabetic patient, usually the beta cells of the pancreas are affected but not the alpha cells, so the glycogenolysis can occur in the body spontaneously.
But excess injection of insulin should also be avoided as that can cause the blood sugar level to come down below normal.
