Diagnosing Diabetes

$14.95 – $99.95

Does your patient have Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes?

Analyze simulated blood plasma samples collected during a glucose tolerance test to determine if your patient has Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes.

  • Create a patient information sheet about diabetes and the glucose tolerance test.
  • Test and graph glucose and insulin levels in simulated blood plasma samples.
  • Analyze the test results to determine if the patient has Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes.

  • Science & Engineering Practices

    Analyzing and Interpreting Data - Analyze data using tools, technologies, and/or models (e.g., computational, mathematical) in order to make valid and reliable scientific claims

  • Disciplinary Core Ideas

    LS1.A: Structure and Function - Feedback mechanisms maintain a living system’s internal conditions within certain limits and mediate behaviors, allowing it to remain alive and functional even as external conditions change within some range. Feedback mechanisms can encourage (through positive feedback) or discourage (negative feedback) what is going on inside the living system.

  • Crosscutting Concepts

    Stability and Change - Feedback (negative or positive) can stabilize or destabilize a system.
