The human body adjusts its balance among all its parts through a process called homeostasis. Let’s imagine that this dancer is suffering from a blood sugar disorder. Earlier, just before this photo was taken, he’d eaten an energy bar. As an energy bar is digested, blood sugar rises. Normally, tiny collections of cells embedded in the pancreas respond to the rise in blood sugar by secreting the chemical insulin. Insulin increases the movement of sugar from the blood into his cells. However, he did not feel satisfied from his energy bar. He felt dizzy and was still hungry, all symptoms he worried could be due to a family history of diabetes. Fortunately, the on-site trainer tested his blood sugar and noted that it was much higher than normal.After a visit to his regular physician, the dancer was outfitted with an insulin pump, and his blood sugar levels are more consistent. Since reading about homeostasis in the chapter, fill in the blanks below regarding the dancer’s blood sugar levels before and after his visit to the doctor. The disruption to the dancer's homeostasis was caused by his blood sugar which remained [BG] following a meal. Typically, blood sugar levels return to normal after eating due to the activity of insulin which is created by cells in the [center] However, the dancer's body produced insufficient insulin which result in a(n) [uptake] uptake of sugar from his blood. Since this dancer's family history contains incidents of diabetes, it is reasonable to assume he suffers from this condition as well. [TF] (true or false?)
