Are triglycerides dengerous
Hatshy [7]

They are not something that you prevent from being made in your body. They are automatically made when you eat food that is not automatically converted into calories. This is used for energy later on for you body.

But too much of triglycerides is bad for you. This condition is called hypertriglyceridemia. Your doctor can detect if you have this condition by simply running a lipid panel (a blood test) that measures your overall cholesterol, you LDL and HDL cholesterol, and also measuring your triglycerides.

If you do take this test, they will make you fast for about 8 hours. They make you do this because triglycerides are usually lowest after you fast but goes up really high after a big meal (like a Thanksgiving Dinner!).

(Extra: your triglycerides are measured in milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) and if your levels are:

BELOW 150 -----------------Healthy

150-199 -----------------------Borderline

200-499 ---------------------High

500+ --------------------------Very High


Most people are under 200, so in the end, you don't have to worry about your triglyceride levels.

Homeostatic regulation usually involves a(n) ________ that detects a particular stimulus, and a(n) ________ that responds to the
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

c) receptor; control center; effector.

Explanation:

Homeostasis maintains the internal body conditions almost constant. It includes specific cells that sense any deviations of internal or external conditions from the normal range. These cells are called receptors. The sensory information from the receptors is delivered to the control center. The central nervous system mainly serves as a control system wherein sensory information from the receptors is processed. The control center commands muscles and/or glands to perform desired responses to restore the homeostasis. Here, muscles and glands serve as effectors.

For example, thermoreceptors sense the rise of body temperature and the brain (control center) commands sweat glands (effectors) to produce sweat.
