100
An important protein and hormone in the regulation of blood glucose
What is insulin
100
The two types of feedback loops
What is Positive and Negative Feedback
100
The two types of diabetes
What is type 1 and type 2 diabetes
100
Root cause of type 2 diabetes
What is lifestyle
200
Disrupts homeostasis
What is disease or illness!
200
Lack of insulin function which causes elevated glucose levels in the bloodstream
What is diabetes
200

A process that occurs in a feedback loop which exacerbates the effects of a small disturbance.

What is positive feedback

200
Little to no insulin is released
What is type 1 diabetes
200
The number of human body systems in the body
What is 11
300
Three aspects of the body that must be maintained in order to achieve homeostasis.
What is pH, Body Temperature, and Blood Sugar!
300

Produces insulin in order to regulate blood glucose levels in the body

What is the pancreas? 

300

An example of positive and negative feedback

What is Positive Feedback - Childbirth

Negative Feedback- Heat in your house, Fever in the body, and Blood Glucose Regulation

300
The three symptoms of diabetes
What is Polydypsia (Excessive Thirst) Polyphagia (Hunger) Polyuria (Excessive Urination)
300
The charge of DNA (Negative or Positive)
What is a negative charge
400
The balanced levels of pH, Body Temperature, and Blood Sugar are... (Numbers)
What is pH- 7.35, Body Temperature-37 degrees Celsius, Blood Sugar- 0.1%
400

The process of blood glucose regulation

What is glucose enters the bloodstream, the pancreas produces insulin, insulin connects with insulin receptors in the cell membrane, glucose transport proteins pull glucose into the cell, glucose is absorbed into the cell and used for cellular respiration

400

A feedback loop brings a system closer to a target of stability or homeostasis. These feedback loops are responsible for stabilizing a system and ensuring the maintenance of a steady, stable state.

What is negative feedback

400
Pancreas can produce insulin but glucose cannot get into cell possibly due to fat buildup on the cell membrane.
What is type 2 diabetes
400
The four manners of death
What is Natural, Accident, Suicide, Homicide
500
If homeostasis is not achieved this occurs...
What is death!
500
The feedback loop that regulates blood glucose level in blood
What is negative feedback
500
The control of body temperature, heart rate, and the concentration of sugar in the blood are all regulated by
What is feedback mechanism
500
The old names for type 1 and type 2 diabetes
What is Type 1- Juvenile Diabetes Type 2- Adult Onset Diabetes
500
The year HIPPA was adopted
