Question

Diabetes mellitus is a disease of sugar balance. In type 1 diabetes, the body's immune system gradually destroys the cells that produce insulin. In type 2 diabetes, the body's cells become less responsive to the hormone insulin. Insulin plays a vital role in carbohydrate metabolism. What is its role? Choose the answer that best describes the role of insulin:
a.Insulin controls the rate of carbohydrate digestion; without insulin, less sugar enters the blood.
b.Insulin is needed for cells to metabolize glucose; without insulin, cells will fill with unused glucose.
c.Insulin is needed for cells to pick up glucose from the blood; without insulin, more glucose will remain in the blood.
