AP PSYCHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state. This condition occurs when the body makes insulin, but the insulin doesn’t work properly. Blood glucose levels may become very high-greater than 600 mg/dL (33.3 mmol/L ) without ketoacidosis. If you develop this condition, your body can’t use either glucose or fat for energy.

Detailed explanation-2: -In diabetes, the body either doesn’t produce enough insulin or doesn’t respond properly to insulin causing an imbalance between the effects of insulin and glucagon. In type 1 diabetes, the body isn’t able to produce enough insulin and so blood glucose becomes too high unless insulin is injected.

Detailed explanation-3: -Type 1 Diabetes is an autoimmune disorder in which the body attacks its own endocrine system. Over time, the pancreas loses all of its insulin-producing cells, and the patient becomes fully reliant on synthetic insulin to manage their blood glucose.

Detailed explanation-4: -Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic disorders, characterized by elevated blood glucose (sugar) levels. Diabetes occurs if the body does not produce enough insulin, or because cells in the body do not respond appropriately to insulin (insulin resistance) or both.
