Q. Which one of the following is a matching pair of a certain body feature and its value/count in a normal human adult?
A) Urea - 5 – 10 mg/100 mL of blood
B) Blood sugar - 70 – 100 mg/100 mL (fasting)
C) Total blood volume - 5 – 6
D) ESR in Wintrobe - 9 – 15 mm in males and 20 – 34 mm in females
Explanation
Blood sugar is glucose, which is converted into glycogen by insulin hormone in the liver and muscles. Usually, blood glucose level is about 80-100 mg/100 mL of blood 12 hours after a normal meal. After taking carbohydrate rich diet, blood sugar level raised. Fasting glucose value of blood is 70-110 mg/dL (decilitre) and post prependial (after breakfast) is 110-140 mg/dL.
