1. With increased blood glucose, there will be facilitated diffusion of glucose

Question

1. With increased blood glucose, there will be facilitated diffusion of glucose into beta cells. 2. This change in facilitated diffusion will lead to production of ATP in beta cells. 3. This change in ATP will lead to numbers of open potassium channels. 4. This change in potassium channels will lead to diffusion of potassium out of beta cells 5. This change in potassium channels will lead to levels of intracellular potassium. 6. This change in intracellular potassium will lead to positive change in beta cells and depolarization. 7. This depolarization of beta cells will lead to numbers of open calcium channels 8. This change calcium channels will lead to levels of intracellular calcium 9. This change in intracellular calcium will lead to secretion of insulin

Explanation / Answer

1. MORE. As adipose tissues (beta cells) and various other muscles are considered as a primary storage unit for glucose present in blood stream.

2. MORE. Glucose is considered as the precursor molecule for more energy (ATP) production.

3. INCREASE. ATP gated potassium ion channels will open up.

4. INCREASE.

5. INCREASE.

6. NET INCREASE.

7. MORE

8. INCREASE.

9. MORE.
