Diabetes
This is the kind of diabetes that someone will develop in their adult life due to poor diet and insulin resistance.
A- Type I
B- Type II
C- Type A
D- Type B
Answer: B- Type II
Explanation:
Type 1
- Insulin dependent
- Diabetic ketoacidosis
- Genetics play a role
-Bodys own immune system attacks the insulin
Type 2
- Impaired Fasting Glucose
- Impaired Glucose Tolerance
- Formerly known as non-insulin dependent or adult onset
- Insulin produced, but there is a resistance – thus amount of insulin may be insufficient

What lobes are most damaged with TBIs
A- Frontal
B- Parietal
C- Temporal
D- Occipital
E- Both 1 and 3
Answer: E- Both 1 and 3
frontal lobes are vulnerable to injury since they are located at the front and are large in size. The temporal lobes are located at the side of each of the brain.
Hyperglycemia by definition is what?
A- A buildup of insulin in the bloodstream
B- A buildup of McDonald's in the bloodstream
C- A buildup of hormones in the bloodstream
D- A buildup of glucose in the bloodstream
hyper-high, over, beyond, excess
glyc-sweet, sugar = Glucose
emia- something that is in the blood
True or False: the hypothalamus causes abnormal levels of calcium in the blood, brittle bones, and kidney stones.
A) TRUE
B) FALSE
Answer: False.
These are the impacts of the parathyroid glands.
The hypothalamus impacts include changes in appetite, temperature, and sleep disorders.
The most common cause of SCI

D- Sports-related
C- MVA
MVA is 44%, Violence is 24%, falls is 22%, and sports-related are 8%
What does Insulin do to glucose in the body?
A-Transport into the body's cells where it is used for growth and energy
B-Remove the glucose from the body so sugar levels decrease
C-Prevent glucose from being released into the bloodstream
D-Move the glucose to a different area of the body
Answer: A-Transport into the body's cells where it is used for growth and energy
Explanation: "Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas and functions to regulate glucose metabolism. It transports glucose into the body's cells where it issues for growth and energy." (Atchison & Dirette, 2017, p.343)
This organ produces hormones such as ACTH, FSH, LH, GH, PRL, TSH, hGH, MSH, ADH, and OXT.
A) Thyroid glands
B) Thymus
C) Pancreas
D) Pituitary Gland
Answer: D- Pituitary Gland.
The thyroid glands produce hormones like T4, T3, and CT.
The thymus is not a primary organ, producing thymosin, thymopoietin, and thymulin.
The pancreas produces insulin, glucagon, and somatostatin.
For Alzheimer's, all are mild impairments EXCEPT
A- Memory
B- Learning
C- Language
D- Sometimes executive function
Answer: C- Language
Language is considered a major impairment
Acanthosis Nigricans is a skin condition that causes dark discoloration in the body's skin folds, due most commonly to _______?
A. Insulin Acceptance
B. Insulin Deterrence
C. Insulin Resistance D. Insulin Hindrance
Answer: C. Insulin Resistance
Explanation:
Insulin Resistance is an impaired response of the body to insulin, resulting in elevated levels of glucose in the blood (a key component of type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome). (Wilcox, 2005)
Excess insulin causes normal skin cells to reproduce at a rapid rate. For those with dark skin, these new cells have more melanin. This increase in melanin produces a patch of skin that's darker than the skin surrounding it. Thus, the presence of acanthosis nigricans is a strong predictor of future diabetes. (Barwell, 2019)
What are some diseases that contribute to the pineal gland?
A) Insomnia, anxiety, abnormal thyroid function, intestinal hypersensitivity
B) Addison's, Cushing's, pituitary tumors

Answer: A- Insomnia, anxiety, abnormal thyroid function, intestinal hypersensitivity
B: Adrenal Glands- Addison's, Cushing's, pituitary tumors
C: Pancreas- EPI, cystic fibrosis
D: Pituitary Gland- Prolactinoma, acromegaly, craniopharyngioma
What is the most common type of stroke?
