Answer:

Constance's body is capable of producing insulin, but the insulin is misused. her condition is known as pre-diabetes.

Explanation:

Prediabetes is the preliminary stage of diabetes mellitus where all the symptoms necessary for the diagnosis of diabetes are absent, but the blood sugar is abnormally high.

Prediabetes is associated with obesity (especially abdominal or visceral obesity), high triglyceride and / or low HDL cholesterol dyslipidemia and hypertension. Therefore, it is a metabolic diathesis or syndrome, and it usually does not produce any symptoms, and the only symptom is high blood sugar.  

Impaired fasting blood glucose and impaired glucose tolerance are two types of prediabetes that are similar in clinical description (high blood glucose levels in both cases) but are physiologically different. Insulin resistance, insulin resistance syndrome and prediabetes are closely related and have overlapping aspects.

Look at the data tables below. Which would most likely produce a nonlinear graph? 
lora16 [44]
Table 3

A linear graph is one where there is a steady change in the value on the y-axis with a steady change in the value on the x-axis. The first table will produce a positive sloped straight line that has an increase of 5 in the value of distance with each increment in the time value.
Table 2 will produce a graph where there is a decrease of 2 in the value of distance with an increase in the value of time.
Table 4 will produce a graph where the line is horizontal; the y-value does not change with time.

Table 3 has a graph which has to move up and down to accommodate the decreasing and increasing values, so it will be non-linear.
