Question

A deficiency of insulin causes
A) hypocalcemia.
B) hyperglycemia.
C) Cushing's syndrome.
D) adrenal shock.

Accepted Answer

Insulin deficiency can cause hyperglycemia, as insulin is responsible for regulating blood glucose levels. Hypocalcemia is a condition characterized by low calcium levels and is not directly related to insulin deficiency. Cushing's syndrome is a hormonal disorder caused by high levels of cortisol, which is not related to insulin deficiency. Adrenal shock is a condition where the adrenal glands are unable to produce enough hormones and is not related to insulin deficiency.
