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.

olasank [31]

A) <u>Mutation</u> is the original source of variations for plants and other organisms  which develops differences among their respective species

Explanation:

Genetic variation leads to the natural differences between each individual and among individuals of a species. The main cause for this variation is due to alleles that cause variations in the composition of genes or the DNA sequences.  

A mutation is a genetic variation which leads to the creation of a new allele in a species population. Each variation in the DNA sequence leads to an allele formation and each allele leads to a difference in character or trait between individuals since they are the alternate version of the original genes.  

Although genetic variations could be brought about by crossing over, random fertilization, or independent assortment; mutation is the original source because it provides the basic raw material for all the evolutionary changes.

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Can grow on MM1.

Explanation:

  • Organisms that can only grow in a media having specific nutrients included in it are called a fastidious organism, this implies that these organisms have specific nutrient requirements for their growth.
  • MM 1 represents the minimal media which has basic nutrients present in it, however as the fastidious organisms require some particular or complex nutrients for their growth they can not grow on the minimal media.
  • Therefore, since the organisms that are given in the question is able to grow on the minimal media MM1, this implies that it is not a fastidious organism.
