Answer: diabetes mellitus

Explanation:

This is a disease condition associated with elevated blood glucose levels.

It is due to abnormalities of the Pancreas. The pancreas coordinates two hormones INSULIN AND GLUCAGON in its cells.

INSULIN converts excess sugar to GLYCOGEN while GLUCAGON breaks down GLYCOGEN to sugar when blood glucose/glucose levels drops.

If the pancreas beta-cells of glucose are faulty, INSULIN fails to converts excess glucose to glycogen; therefore glucose builds up in the blood plasma,and failed to enter the needed cells. Large amount of glucose is wasted in urine.This is diabetes Mellitus.

The two types of diabetes are:

Type 1 and Type 2.

Science rejects any hypothesis not supported by __________________________ and the results of ___________________________ experi
Ket [755]

Answer:

Observations; control.

Explanation:

A hypothesis is considered to be tentative or an educated guess and can be defined as a testable explanation for an  observation or a scientific problem. An example of a hypothesis is saying, Corona virus is caused by the introduction of the "5G" technology.

On the other hand, a control experiment  can be defined as an experiment in which a condition assumed to be a probable cause of the effect is being compared to the same  situation by the scientist without involving or using the suspected condition.

Hence, science rejects any hypothesis not supported by observations and the results of control experiments.

<em>This ultimately implies that, for any hypothesis to be acceptable in science, it must be supported by observations and the results of control experiments; this give rise to factual informations, theories and by extension solutions to problems.</em>
