Answer 2

The correct option: a) Both A and R are correct and Ris the correct explanation for A

Assertion (A): Insulin regulates blood sugar level.

Reason (R): Insufficient secretion of insulin will cause diabetes.

Diabetes:

• A metabolic disorder in which the body has high sugar levels for prolonged periods of time.

Insulin:

• Insulin is a peptide hormone produced by beta cells of the pancreatic islets encoded in humans by the INS gene.
• It is considered to be the main anabolic hormone of the body.

Diabetes and insulin secretion:

• First, insulin secretion is exquisitely sensitive to changes in blood glucose.
• This is achieved by coupling glucose metabolism with insulin secretion via changes in intracellular ATP levels, β-cell electrical activity and insulin vesicle release.

The correct option: a) Both A and R are correct and Ris the correct explanation for A
