Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
What is the role of insulin in glucose metabolism?
Steps
Concepts
Step 1: When you eat food, your body breaks it down into glucose, which is a type of sugar.
Step 2: Glucose enters your bloodstream, causing blood sugar levels to rise.
Step 3: The pancreas detects the high blood sugar levels and releases insulin.
Step 4: Insulin acts like a key that opens the doors of cells, allowing glucose to enter.
Step 5: Once inside the cells, glucose can be used for energy or stored for later use.
Step 6: As glucose enters the cells, blood sugar levels decrease, helping to maintain balance in the body.
