Waec Model Questions Vol1 2020 Biology Question 25
Practice objective / multiple choice question 25 from the 2020 Waec Model Questions Vol1 Biology examination.
After a meal, a person's blood glucose rises to 180 mg/dL. Insulin secretion increases proportionally to the excess glucose above the normal fasting level of 100 mg/dL at a rate of 0.3 µU mL⁻¹ per mg/dL, while glucagon secretion decreases proportionally at a rate of 0.1 µU mL⁻¹ per mg/dL. Baseline (fasting) insulin is 6 µU mL⁻¹ and baseline glucagon is 12 µU mL⁻¹. What is the ratio of the post‑prandial insulin concentration to the glucagon concentration (insulin : glucagon)?
