Describe two problems/malfunctions that can occur in this feedback
loop that cause an imbalance of blood glucose levels and lead to
diabetes.

Respuesta :

Answer:

People with type 1 diabetes do not produce insulin due to auto-immune destruction of the insulin producing cells, while people with type 2 diabetes have chronic high blood glucose levels that cause insulin resistance. With diabetes, blood glucose is increased by normal glucagon activity, but the lack of or resistance to insulin means that blood sugar levels are unable to return to normal. This causes metabolic changes that result in diabetes symptoms like weakened blood vessels and frequent urination. Diabetes is normally treated with insulin injections, which replaces the missing negative feedback of normal insulin secretions.

As a person who had been diagnosed with type one diabetes since I was very young.
One would be that your pancreas has stop producing insulin. As a result the sugar and carbs u eat will build up in your blood stream.
If caught before severe damage U would have to take have insulin medication. This is type one. Type 2 is a different story. Your body still produces insulin however only 50%. The hormones to help carry out the insulin dies. So as a result u get a high glucose. Now type 2 is not that extreme. To treat u most likely would use metphormin ( a medication) Hope this helps and u never have to face any of this :)
