Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Type 1 diabetes is characterized by a lack of insulin production by the pancreas, resulting in high blood glucose levels. Therefore, a decrease in insulin secreted by the pancreas is a potential occurrence in type 1 diabetes. A decrease in insulin receptors on muscle cells (A) and a decrease in insulin levels inside muscle cells (C) are associated with insulin resistance, which is more commonly seen in type 2 diabetes. A decrease in blood glucose (B) is not common in type 1 diabetes, as the primary issue is insufficient insulin to transport glucose into cells. Glucose is not secreted by muscle cells (E).
