Diabetes Awareness Quiz

Email *

Name *

Phone number *

Foods we eat get digested and released as____in the blood stream *

1 point

Glucose / Sugar

Blood

Fluid

None of the above

Insulin is a hormone *

1 point

Regulates the blood glucose levels

Make cells to uptake glucose from the blood stream

Involved in the storage of fat

All the above are correct

When the beta cells in pancreas secrets insulin? *

1 point

Rise of glucose level in blood

Low level of glucose in blood

While fasting

None of the above

Pancreas regulates blood glucose homeostasis by making muscle and liver cells to uptake excess glucose in the blood stream and later released in the blood stream only by the liver cells when there was a drop in the blood glucose level during sleeping, fasting *

1 point

True

False

When a person become Diabetes mellitus? *

1 point

Insufficient insulin produced, or when the available insulin does not function properly to uptake glucose by the cells

When we intake food

When we are fasting

None of the above

Countries with highest number of diabetic patients *

1 point

China, United States, India, Pakistan

China, United States, Pakistan, India

China, India, United States, Pakistan

None of the above

Type-1 diabetes is an organ-specific autoimmune disease *

1 point

True

False

Cause of type 1 diabetes? *

1 point

Exposed to Viral infection

Consumption of cow's milk in childhood

Inflammation

All the above are correct

Insufficient amount / or no production of insulin by beta cells leads to *

1 point

Type 1 diabetes mellitus

Type 2 diabetes mellitus

Hyperglycemia

Hypoglycemia

In Type 1 diabetes patient though sufficient amount of glucose available in the blood, cells cannot uptake glucose due to absence of insulin by which make liver to release stored glucose but still cells cannot uptake and blood glucose level shoot-up, further break down of fats in the adipose tissue for energy to the cell result in ketoacidosis *

1 point

True

False

Management for type 1 diabetes *

1 point

Administration of insulin

Avoid food

Both A and B are correct

None of the above

Cell membrane primarily composed of *

1 point

Lipid

Protein

Carbohydrate

None of the above

Lipids are a larger class of molecules while fatty acids form a small part of it *

1 point

True

False

Categories of Fatty acids *

1 point

Saturated

Monounsaturated

Polyunsaturated

Tran’s fats

All the above are correct

Among the following, which fatty acid is good for health? *

1 point

Saturated

Monounsaturated

Polyunsaturated

Tran’s fats

What is essential fatty acid? *

1 point

Not synthesised by our body

Obtained only through external dietary source

Both A & B are correct

None of the above

Omega-6 fatty acid & omega-3 fatty acid are considered as essential fatty acids *

1 point

True

False

Three decade back Omega-6 : Omega-3 fatty acid ratio was 2:1 in the cell-membrane but now it was 25:1 *

1 point

True

False

Omega-3 fatty acids rich in *

1 point

Walnut

Flax seed

Salmon Fish

All the above are correct

Though sufficient amount of insulin available but still cells fail to uptake glucose result in *

1 point

Type 1 diabetes mellitus

Type 2 diabetes mellitus

Both A and B are correct

None of the above

Why cells fails to uptake glucose even in the presence of insulin? *

1 point

Poor intake of essential fatty acids by shifting to western diet

Intake of refine foods & oils were essential fatty acids are eliminated

Changes in the cell-membrane based on the available fatty acids

Diminish in the number of insulin receptor

All the above are correct

Glucose in the presence of insulin results in *

1 point

Protein

Carbohydrate

Fat

None of the above

Excess glucose in the blood stream leads to *

1 point

Glycation- cross-linking with Proteins, DNA etc

Reduces the function of enzymes

Arterial & capillary walls become hard less permeable to nutrients and oxygen

No new blood vessels formed near the wounded areas, which leads to poor / slow wound healing

Glucose can penetrate without insulin aid in nerves, kidneys and retina results in extensive damage

All the above are correct

Physical activity is required, once glucose uptake by the muscle cell in-turn not released in the blood stream as like liver, be utilized only by the muscle cells through exercise / physical activity *

1 point

True

False

Low glycemic index food are good for diabetes *

1 point

Slowly digested

Slow release of glucose in the blood stream

Avoid instant shoot-up of glucose in the blood

All the above are correct

Gluten present in wheat leads to *

1 point

Poor digestion of gluten

Generation of gluten peptide

Gluten peptide released in the blood stream

Gluten peptide binds with the cell of the various organs

Generated gluten peptide antibodies result in auto-immune disease

All the above are correct

Why HbA1c test preferred for blood glucose level rather than gluco-meter? *

1 point

Glucose freely diffuses in the red blood cells without the aid of insulin

HbA1c test measures the amount of blood glucose binds to haemoglobin

Average blood glucose level explored for the past 3 months, since RBC life span is about 90 days.

Glucometer can only able to show the glucose level on the day of testing

All the above are correct
