Question

  1. if someone cannot make enough insulin (diabetes), predict how the glucose line would change.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Insulin normally promotes glucose uptake by cells, lowering blood glucose. Insufficient insulin reduces this uptake, so glucose accumulates in the blood, leading to persistently high levels and impaired glucose clearance.

Answer:

The glucose line would show higher baseline levels and slower/failed decrease after glucose intake (e.g., meals), remaining elevated for longer periods.
