Following a snack or meal, blood glucose levels will rise. which of the following are possible fates of the glucose found in the bloodstream? check all that apply. check all that apply blood glucose can be used for energy. 0 blood glucose can be converted into either liver or muscle glycogen. 0 blood glucose can be converted to and stored as fat in the adipose tissue. 0 when excessive amounts of glucose are in the blood, some glucose can be excreted in the urine. 0 blood glucose can be used to build muscles. 0 blood glucose can be made into ketone bodies, resulting in ketosis.

0 Apply Blood glucose can be used for energy.

0 Blood glucose can be converted into either liver or muscle glycogen.

0 Blood glucose can be converted to and stored as fat in the adipose tissue. 0 When excessive amounts of glucose are in the blood, some glucose can be excreted in the urine.

Explanation:

Glucose in the body is a source of energy It needs insulin to facilitate its withdrawal from the blood stream into the cells for immediate energy source, through oxidative phosphorylation in glycolysis

insulin and glucagon are the two hormones of  islets of Langerhans in the pancreas which regulate blood glucose and glycogen levels.

Hormone Insulin  produced by  beta  cells (receptor cells)of the pancreas convert excess glucose in the blood to glycogen which is stored in the liver and muscles cells 'especially  immediately after carbohydrate meals,(hyperglycemia) .It stimulate  activities phophofructokinase enzyme and glycogen synthase  to add more glucose molecules to glycogen.  This hormone insulin is antagonist of  glucagon produced by alpha cells(receptor cells),.its primary function is to ensure the control of blood glucose concentration to relatively constant level. In case of Hypoglycemia, when blood glucose level drops below  the threshold; is activity drops, and  Glucagon  begin it role  by converting  glycogen storage in the liver(effectors) back to glucose for cellular utilization.

Elevation of  blood glucose level in the blood, leads to massive re-absorption in the Proximal consulted tubule of the Nephron. This is selective re-absorption , and its  keeps the blood glucose level normal within the normal limit of threshold. However, id the threshold level has  been exceeded, more glucose are excreted in the kidney because the PCT can no longer reabsorbed the excess glucose. This lead to increase in solute potential of the blood, and therefore of the urine. More water follows by osmosis in the urine leading to DIURESIS, and POLYURIA (excess urine production) by the kidney.

Wrong Options

Muscle  building is the function of protein.Protein are naturally ,muscle builders.therefore glucose do not build  muscles, but rather they are source of  energy for muscles via oxidative phosphorylation

ketone bodies are produces during gluconerogenesis when Fatty acid is broken down to replace depleted blood glucose concentration.

Bood glucose can be converted into either liver or muscle glycogen.

Blood glucose can be converted to and stored as fat in the adipose tissue.

homeostasis is the tendency towards a relatively stable equilibrium between interdependent elements, especially as maintained by physiological processes. and this is how it applies to the integumentary system. back to top. skin functions in homeostasis include protection, regulation of body temperature, sensory reception, water balance, synthesis of vitamins and hormones, and absorption of materials. when body temperature falls, the sweat glands constrict and sweat production decreases.
