Questions and Answers

Type 1 Diabetes means:
- A.
  
  Insulin will be secreted in body but cells cant utilise glucose
- B.
  
  Insulin will not be screted by body because of defect in pancreas
- C.
  
  Both A and B
- D.
  
  None
Correct Answer
B. Insulin will not be screted by body because of defect in pancreas

Explanation
Type 1 Diabetes is characterized by the body's inability to produce insulin due to a defect in the pancreas. This means that insulin will not be secreted by the body, leading to a lack of regulation in blood glucose levels.

Type 2 diabetes means:
- A.
  
  Insulin will be released by body but cells cant use
- B.
  
  Insulin will not be secreted by body
- C.
  
  Both A and B
- D.
  
  None
Correct Answer
B. Insulin will not be secreted by body

Explanation
Type 2 diabetes is a condition in which the body is unable to properly use insulin or becomes resistant to its effects. In this case, the correct answer is "Insulin will not be secreted by the body." This means that although the body may still produce insulin, it is not able to release it effectively, leading to high blood sugar levels.

GLP means:
- A.
  
  Glucagon like peptide
- B.
  
  Glucose dependent insulinotropic polypeptide
- C.
  
  Gastric inhibitoty polypeptide
- D.
  
  None
Correct Answer
A. Glucagon like peptide

Explanation
GLP stands for Glucagon like peptide. This is a hormone that is released by the intestines in response to food intake. It plays a role in regulating blood sugar levels by stimulating the release of insulin and inhibiting the release of glucagon. GLP also slows down the rate at which food is emptied from the stomach, helping to promote feelings of fullness and reduce appetite.

GIP means:
- A.
  
  Glucose dependent insulinotropic polypeptide
- B.
  
  Gastric inhibitoty polypeptide
- C.
  
  Both and B
- D.
  
  None
Correct Answer
C. Both and B

Explanation
The correct answer is "both and B." This means that GIP stands for both Glucose dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and gastric inhibitory polypeptide. GIP is a hormone that is released from the small intestine in response to the presence of glucose and inhibits gastric acid secretion. It also stimulates the release of insulin from the pancreas, helping to regulate blood sugar levels.

Insulin helps to control blood glucose levels in the body.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas that plays a crucial role in regulating blood glucose levels. It allows cells in the body to take in glucose from the bloodstream and use it for energy. Without insulin, blood glucose levels can become dangerously high, leading to a condition called hyperglycemia. Therefore, it is true that insulin helps to control blood glucose levels in the body.

Diabetes is:
- A.
  
  Acute disorder
- B.
  
  Metabolic chronic disorder
- C.
  
  Both A and B
- D.
  
  None
Correct Answer
B. Metabolic chronic disorder

Explanation
Diabetes is a metabolic chronic disorder because it is a long-term condition that affects the metabolism of glucose in the body. It is characterized by high blood sugar levels due to the body's inability to produce or use insulin effectively. This condition requires ongoing management and treatment to control blood sugar levels and prevent complications. Acute disorders are typically short-term and have a sudden onset, which does not align with the chronic nature of diabetes.

Normal HbA1c
- A.
  
  Less than 5.7%
- B.
  
  5.7-6.5%
- C.
  
  More than 6.5%
- D.
  
  None
Correct Answer
A. Less than 5.7%

Explanation
An HbA1c level less than 5.7% indicates a normal blood sugar control. HbA1c is a measure of average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months. A level below 5.7% suggests that the person has a low risk of developing diabetes.

Normal FPG levels:
- A.
  
  100mg/dl
- B.
  
  126mg/dl
- C.
  
  140mg/dl
- D.
  
  200mg/dl
Correct Answer
A. 100mg/dl

Explanation
The given answer of 100mg/dl is the normal fasting blood glucose level. Fasting blood glucose refers to the blood sugar level after a period of fasting, typically overnight. A normal fasting blood glucose level is usually between 70-100mg/dl. This level indicates that the body is effectively regulating blood sugar and is not experiencing any abnormal spikes or drops in glucose levels.

HBA1C gives:
- A.
  
  Average of last 3 months glucose levels
- B.
  
  Random glucose levels
- C.
  
  Both A and B
- D.
  
  None
Correct Answer
A. Average of last 3 months glucose levels

Explanation
HbA1c, or glycated hemoglobin, gives the average of the last three months' glucose levels. This is because HbA1c measures the amount of glucose that has attached to hemoglobin in the red blood cells over a period of approximately three months. By measuring the percentage of HbA1c in the blood, healthcare professionals can assess a person's average blood sugar levels over that time frame, providing valuable information about their long-term blood sugar control.

Glucose is required to provide energy to cells.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Glucose is a simple sugar that serves as a primary source of energy for cells. It is broken down during cellular respiration to produce ATP, the molecule that powers cellular activities. Without glucose, cells would not have the necessary fuel to perform their functions. Therefore, it is true that glucose is required to provide energy to cells.
