Chapter 47.2, Problem 2CS
Summary Introduction
To determine: The model of glucose homeostasis to show the changes in the level of glucose and insulin concentrations in an organism having type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Introduction: In type 2 diabetes mellitus, cells of an organism are unable to show response to the insulin hormone. It occurs due to altered level of glucose in the blood of an organism.

1.15- Graphing Practice
Graph: Diabetes Case Study on Diabetes
Diabetes is a disease affecting the insulin-producing glands of the pancreas. If
there is not enough insulin being produced by these cells, the amount of
glucose in the blood will remain high. A blood glucose level above (40 for a
long time is not considered normal. This disease, if not taken care of, can lead
to severe complications like coma and even death.
Answer the following questions concerning the data below and then graph it:

1. What is the dependent variable and why?
2. What is the independent variable and why?
3. What title would you give the graph?
4. What type of graph will you make?
5. Now make your graph that includes: title, plotted data points, and labeled x- and y-axes.
Evaluate the following in regards to using meta comments:
The effect of a low carbohydrate on diabetes management will be evaluated using several sources. The first section of the paper describes low carbohydrate diets recommended by the American Diabetes Association. This is followed by a discussion on theoretical context of how exercise can assist in diabetes management. The next section of the paper highlights research studies that indicate a low carbohydrate diet is effective in diabetes management.
Group of answer choices
A. The use of meta comments in this example is overused
B. The use of meta comments in this example is appropriate for use
Briefly explain how glucose can be taken into the muscle at a high rate during exercise when plasma insulin is reduced. Include the role of glucose transporters.
