Describe the role of insulin in regulating blood sugar levels

Biology
1 answer:
Fynjy0 [20]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Insulin helps control blood glucose levels by signaling the liver + muscle fat cells to take glucose from the blood. It then helps the cells to take the glucose to be use for energy, and if the body has sufficient energy, insulin signals the liver to take up glucose and store it as glycogen.

Answer:

1. Antonie van Leeuwenhoek made the first microscope and used it to look at bacteria and study bacteria, and Robert Hooke studied cells and saw cavities in the cells that looked like small boxes - he discovered plant cells! he recognized cells as the basic unit of life, a basis for Cell Theory.

2. cell theory is: every living organism is made of one or more cells, cells are the smallest units of life ( that have the properties of a living thing), All cells come from other cells  - all living things come from other living things. This relates to every living thing because all living things come under cell theory - like all living things are made of cells

3. prokaryotes, like bacteria, doesn't have a nucleus covered in a membrane. a eukaryotic cell, like an animal cell, has a membrane covered nucleus. just like the nucleus, in eukaryotes the organelles are not membrane bound. in prokaryotes, the organelles are membrane bound. In prokaryotes the DNA form is circular, while the DNA form in eukaryotes is linear. there are more, but i couldn't list them.

4. Example for prokaryote: the famous (or infamous) E. Coli bacterium. example for eukaryote: Humans!

5. Single-celled organisms (unicellular organisms) have all the functions necessary for their survival in the single cell. Multicellular organisms (many celled organisms), however, need many cells to survive and carry out all the functions necessary for their survival and do the different tasks each cell is supposed to do.

I hope this helped, please do correct me if I am wrong!

Is it yes or no? I’ll brainliest u if u get it right!
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

I think No. because matter can neither be created nor destroyed...chemical change cannot alter the number of atoms in a given reaction. The atoms can only rearrange so that it can yield a new molecule/compound but the number of atoms should stay the same.
