Respuesta :

Answer: c) the generation of enzymes in the blood that rapidly degrade insulin after the release from the pancreas

Explanation:

Diabetes is a condition in which blood glucose level is affected. Insulin is the hormone which is produced by the pancreas. It helps in regulating the blood glucose level.

In diabetes very low or no insulin is produced by the pancreas as a result of which the blood glucose level rises as more glucose is produced by the liver and it remains underutilized by the organs.
