Diabetes mellitus is a disease of sugar balance. in type 1 diabetes, the body's immune system gradually destroys the cells that produce insulin. in type 2 diabetes, the body's cells become less responsive to the hormone insulin. insulin plays a vital role in carbohydrate metabolism. what is its role? choose the answer that best describes the role of insulin:
a. insulin controls the rate of carbohydrate digestion; without insulin, less sugar enters the blood.
b. insulin is needed for cells to metabolize glucose; without insulin, cells will fill with unused glucose.
c. insulin is needed for cells to pick up glucose from the blood; without insulin, more glucose will remain in the blood.
d. insulin is necessary for digested carbohydrates to be absorbed from the digestive tract into the blood; without insulin, less sugar enters the blood.

In 2009, a flu pandemic was believed to have originated when viral transmission occurred from pig to human, thereby earning the designation, "swine flu." although pigs are thought to have been the breeding ground for the 2009 virus, sequences from bird, pig, and human viruses were all found within this newly identified virus. what is the most likely explanation of why this virus contained sequences from bird, pig, and human viruses? a) the virus was descended from a common ancestor of bird, pig, and human flu viruses. b) the infected individuals happened to be infected with all three virus types. c) related viruses can undergo genetic recombination if the rna genomes mix and match during viral assembly. d) the human was likely infected with various bacterial strains that contained all three rna viruses.
