Place the following events in sequence: A) Energy is released into the body B) Glucose enters the mitochondria; C) Carbon dioxide and water are produced
What would happen if our bodies could not metabolize glucose?

Respuesta :

Answer:

So the sequence is:

  1. CO2 and water are produced
  2. Glucose enters mitochondria
  3. Energy is released into the body

If our bodies could not metabolize glucose then we would be prone to diabetes and lifestyle diseases

Explanation:

Hope this helps! Have a good night ahead.

B) Glucose enters mitochondria

C) Carbon dioxide + water are produced (as well as energy)

A) Energy is released into body

If our bodies could not metabolise glucose, out blood sugar levels would remain high and our bodies would aim to get rid of the excess glucose by secreting insulin which stimulate glycogenesis (formation of glycogen from glucose for storage), but, hypothetically, since our body cannot metabolise the glucose, it would have to be excreted via the urine. This results in high levels of glucose in urine and thirst as a result of the water loss. These symptoms are experience by people with Type 2 diabetes
