Diabetics can not get glucose into their cells.
False
True
Diabetes is when the body does not produce enough insulin.
True
False
Randy eats lots of starch, but his test results show he has little glucose in his cells. What's wrong with Randy?
His circulatory system is not breaking down starch into glucose
His respiratory system is not breaking down starch into glucose
His digestive system is not breaking down starch into glucose
His respiratory system is not breaking down protein into glucose
Diabetics cannot get oxygen into their cells.
True
False
From top to bottom, order the path food molecules take through the body.
The esophagus brings food to the stomach where it is broken down
Food enters the small intestine where it is picked up and sent to the blood
Food enters the mouth, is chewed and then swallowed down the esophagus
Blood brings the glucose/amino acids to cells where it isued to make energy
Which TWO molecules are needed for a cell to release energy?
water
oxygen
glucose
amino acids
What TWO body systems have to work together to get oxygen to cells of the body?
circulatory
digestive
respiratory
Ky's test showed he had normal levels of oxygen and glucose in his cells, but he had no starch. Can he exercise?
Yes, he has oxygen and glucose and they will create energy
No, cells do not need oxygen to release energy
No, cells need starch to produce energy
Yes, the starch will break down in the cell to make glucose
If your digestive system isn't working, would it be hard to exercise?
No, because your cells need molecules from food ONLY
Yes, because your cells need molecules from food ONLY
Yes, because your cell needs molecules from air AND food
No, because your cells need molecules from air ONLY
What TWO body systems have to work together to get glucose to cells of the body?
respiratory
digestive
circulatory
What TWO molecules are taken in by the mitochondria to create energy?
glucose
protein
oxygen
amino acid
A doctor wants to know if her patient is healthy. What should the doctor check?
if the patients cells are getting molecules from food and air
if the patient is getting molecules from the air
if the stomach cells are getting food molecules
if the patient is getting enough sleep
A plant takes in water, sunlight and carbon dioxide to make sugar and oxygen during photosynthesis. Sugar and oxygen...
are outputs of photosynthesis
are inputs of photosynthesis
Cici is breathing normally and eating corn. Kam isn't breathing normally and is eating corn. Who is healthier?
Kam because he has glucose and oxygen in his body's cells.
Neither child because they are missing molecules in their cells.
Both children because they have glucose and oxygen in their bodies cells.
Cici because she has glucose and oxygen in her body's cells.
From top to bottom, order the path oxygen takes through the body.
Cells take in the oxygen and use it to make energy.
The nose and mouth take in oxygen and bring it to the lungs.
Alveoli in the lungs transports the oxygen into the blood.
Blood takes the oxygen to the cells.
Diabetics usually have low blood sugar.
False
True
Jane ate a lollipop made completely of sugar. What will happen to her ability to exercise?
It would be easier to exercise because glucose will go straight to the cell
Nothing would change, but her respiratory system would not work as hard
It would be harder to exercise because glucose would go into the blood
Nothing would change, but her digestive system would not work as hard
Harry's cells have low levels of oxygen, normal levels of amino acids and normal levels of glucose. Is he healthy?
No, his cells need glucose to react with amino acids
No, his cells need oxygen to react with glucose
Yes, his cells have amino acids to react with oxygen
Yes, his cells have amino acids to react with glucose
Kai has asthma. Why would he have trouble exercising?
He would not have trouble exercising
He would need more amino acids in his diet
He would have oxygen in his cells but little glucose
He would have glucose in his cells but little oxygen
