Question : 21

Diabetes mellitus takes place only when

a) b-cells of pancreas are in excess quantity

b) a-cells of pancreas are in less quantity

c) a-cells of pancreas are in excess quantity

d) b-cells of pancreas are in less quantity

Answer: (d)

b-cells of the islet of Langerhans in the pancreas secrete insulin which helps our body cells to take up glucose from the blood and uses it for their metabolic functions.

In diabetes mellitus, b-cells are reduced in number because of many reasons, leading to the non-absorption of blood glucose by our body cells, due to which the blood sugar level remains high.

This condition creates health problems for the patient.
