FIFTY POINTS!!!

Blood glucose level is regulated by a feedback loop, shown in the diagram below. People with diabetes either cannot make insulin, or their bodies cannot use insulin properly.

What does the diagram suggest about the effectiveness of the feedback loop at regulating the blood glucose level of diabetics? (image below)

A. It is effective because it allows diabetics to produce insulin.
B. It is effective because it allows diabetics to break down glycogen into glucose.
C. It is ineffective because diabetics will not be able to increase their blood glucose level.
D. It is ineffective because diabetics will not be able to uptake glucose or convert it into lipids or glycogen.

D
Since diabetics cannot produce insulin properly, in the diagram, the step “Pancreas releases insulin” wouldn’t happen and because of that, diabetics would not be able to uptake glucose or form lipids/glycogen.
