What substance is used by almost every cell in the human body as an energy source?
- Glucose
- Hemoglobin
- Insulin

- Insulin lowers blood sugar, while glucagon raises it
- Insulin raises blood sugar, while glucagon lowers it
- They both work on raising blood sugar
- Together, they lower blood sugar
The nurse recieves a laboratory report for patient whose Hemoglobin A1C is 9.4%. This finding indicates which of the following?
- Average blood glucose has been greater than 200 for the past three months
- Average blood glucose has been lower than 200 for the past three months
- The patient does not have Type 2 Diabetes
- Average fasting blood glucose has been lower than 100 for the past three months
Which physiologic change is correctly matched to the phase of Type 2 Diabetes?
- Insulin resistance begins in Phase One
- Hyperinsulinemia begins in Phase Four
- Beta cell exhaustion occurs in Phase Two
- Osmotic Triad of symptoms appear in Phase Three
The osmotic triad associated with Glucosuria in Diabetes Type 2 consists of which symptoms? Select three correct answers.
- Polyuria
- Polydipsia
- Polyphagia
- Polyps
- Polymyositis
What is the main action of glucagon?
- Releases liver glucose to blood
- Drives glucose into body cells
- Prevents glucose gut absorption
- Converts glucose into fat
- Eliminates glucose in urine
Which sequence correctly orders the four phases of type 2 diabetes development?
- IR → hyperinsulinemia → pre-diabetes → hyperglycemia
- Hyperinsulinemia → IR → pre-diabetes → hyperglycemia
- Pre-diabetes → hyperinsulinemia → IR → hyperglycemia
- Hyperglycemia → pre-diabetes → IR → hyperinsulinemia
What happens when blood glucose exceeds about 180 mg/dL?
- Glucose spills into urine
- Kidneys stop filtering glucose
- All filtered glucose is reabsorbed
- Liver removes all excess glucose
- Insulin production normalizes immediately
