    The document summarizes a lab report on an experiment measuring plasma glucose, insulin, and diabetes mellitus. The student scored 100% on pre-lab and post-lab quizzes. The experiment involved using a glucose standard curve to measure glucose levels in patient samples and determine if they were in the normal or diabetic range. Patients 3, 4, and 5 had glucose readings in the diabetic range, while Patients 1 and 2 were normal.

    Pre-lab Quiz Results


    You scored 100% by answering 5 out of 5 questions correctly.

    1 Which of the following statements is false?

    You correctly answered: Insulin is a hormone secreted into the stomach to aid with starch digestion.

    2 Which of the following statements is true?

    You correctly answered: All of these statements are true.

    3 A diagnosis of type 1 diabetes mellitus implies that

    You correctly answered: the pancreas is not producing sufficient insulin.

    4 A diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus implies that

    You correctly answered: the cells of the body are unresponsive to circulating insulin.

    5 Glucagon is a hormone

    You correctly answered: that opposes the action of insulin.

    Experiment Results
    Predict Question
    1 Predict Question: To measure the amount of plasma glucose in a patient sample

    Your answer: the optical density of the sample will be measured and the glucose concentration will be
    extrapolated from the glucose standard curve.

    Stop & Think Question


    1 Why does the color in the tubes vary?

    You correctly answered: The tubes contain different amounts of glucose.

    Experiment Data

    Tube Optical Density Glucose (mg/deciliter)


    Part 1 1 0.30 30
    2 0.50 60
    3 0.60 90
    4 0.80 120
    5 1.00 150
    Part 2 1 0.73 105
    2 0.79 115
    3 0.89 132
    4 0.83 123
    5 0.96 144

    Post-lab Quiz Results


    You scored 100% by answering 6 out of 6 questions correctly.

    1 A male patient has had successive fasting plasma glucose readings of 115, 110, and 122 mg/dl. The
    healthcare provider will inform him that

    You correctly answered: he appears to have impairment or borderline impairment of insulin-mediated


    glucose uptake by his cells.

    2 To obtain an accurate spectrophotometric measurement of the glucose concentration in the sample

    You correctly answered: heparin is added to prevent blood clots.

    3 In the spectrophotometric assay used in this experiment, the __________ as the glucose concentration in
    the sample increases.

    You correctly answered: optical density increases.

    4 A female patient has had successive fasting plasma glucose readings of 130, 140, and 128 mg/dl. The
    healthcare provider will inform her that

    You correctly answered: she has developed diabetes.

    5 To maintain plasma glucose homeostasis

    You correctly answered: insulin-mediated transport of glucose into cells acts as negative feedback
    when plasma glucose levels rise.

    6 A laboratory technician withdraws a blood sample from a vein in your upper arm knowing that

    You correctly answered: the plasma glucose concentration will be the same in both the arm vein and
    the index finger.

    Review Sheet Results


    1 What is a glucose standard curve, and why did you need to obtain one for this experiment? Did you
    correctly predict how you would measure the amount of plasma glucose in a patient sample using the
    glucose standard curve?

    Your answer:

    Una curva estándar de glucosa es un método para registrar la glucosa en la sangre para identificar los
    niveles. Se necesitó una curva estándar de glucosa para medir las muestras de sangre y ver la
    diferencia de cada una y verificar sus niveles. Así que mi predicción es correcta.

    2 Which patient(s) had glucose reading(s) in the diabetic range? Can you say with certainty whether each
    of these patients has type 1 or type 2 diabetes? Why or why not?

    Your answer:

    Los pacientes que tuvieron lecturas de glucosa en el rango de diabetes son el 3, 4 y el 5. no estoy muy
    segura pero los pacientes con diabetes tipo 1 son el 3 y 4 porque están en el rango para este tipo y el
    paciente 5 podría ser del tipo 2 ya que el rango bajo de este tipo es de 130 a 155 mg/dl.

    3 Describe the diagnosis for patient 3, who was also pregnant at the time of this assay.

    Your answer:

    El posible diagnóstico de la paciente 3 es una posible aparición de diabetes gestacional y este puede
    ser controlado. Pero con el riesgo de desarrollar el diabetes tipo 2.

    4 Which patient(s) had normal glucose reading(s)?

    Your answer:

    Los pacientes que tuvieron lecturas de glucosa normales fueron el paciente 1 y 2.

    5 What are some lifestyle choices these patients with normal plasma glucose readings might
    recommend to the borderline impaired patients?

    Your answer:

    El estilo de vida que pueden recomendar con lecturas normales a pacientes límite con deterioro son:
    tomar agua, menos refresco con mucha azúcar, ejercicio todos los días, controlar las cantidades de
    comida, comer frutas y verduras, dormir bien y fortalecer los músculos.
