Additionally‚ carbohydrates move into the small intestine‚ where enzymes released by the pancreas break those carbohydrates into simple forms‚ so they can be absorbed into the bloodstream. • Lipids that are consumed‚ are mainly fats.

WEEK 1: AN INTRODUCTION TO HUMAN ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY 1. Anatomy is the study of the structure and shape of body and parts‚ while physiology is the study of how the body work and function‚ their relationship is seen for example in the heart‚ there are two valves (anatomy) and these two valves help the heart pump blood. 2. The atom is the smallest particle of an element. An example is carbon ( C ) which is the building block of life. A group of atoms could form for example‚ a water molecule

The pancreas doesn’t make insulin in type I diabetes. The beta cells are destroyed‚ when the immune system attacks the pancreas. The diabetic then needs insulin shots to use glucose they receive from the meals they eat. For these patients insulin shots are the only way to keep their blood sugar levels down. This condition can be inherited. Type 1 diabetes is thought to occur when something in a person’s environment such as a toxin or a virus triggers it. Type 1 diabetes can happen together with

Diabetes What is diabetes? Diabetes mellitus is a lifelong condition caused by a lack‚ or insufficiency of insulin. Insulin is a hormone – a substance of vital importance that is made by your pancreas. Insulin acts like a key to open the doors into your cells‚ letting sugar (glucose) in. In diabetes‚ the pancreas makes too little insulin to enable all the sugar in your blood to get into your muscle and other cells to produce energy. If sugar can’t get into the cells to be used‚ it builds up in the

It contains a group of enzymes that breakdown the products undigested by the pancreas. This takes place just prior to excretion. The food gets converted to semi-solid form by the activity of the enzymes present in the duodenum‚ jejunum‚ and ileum. The enzymes functioning in this part of the digestive system are mentioned below.

What is diabetes? Diabetes is a group of metabolic diseases where the body’s pancreas does not produce enough insulin or does not properly respond to insulin produced‚ resulting in high blood sugar levels over a prolonged period. There are several different types of diabetes‚ but the most common forms are type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Both impact glucose levels‚ and if left untreated‚ can cause many complications What is type 1 diabetes? Type 1 diabetes (T1D) can occur at any age‚ but is most commonly
