Destruction of the pancreatic "Beta Cells" can lead to hyperglycemia is enough of them are annihilated. This is because the beta cells of the organ the pancreas are responsible for producing the hormone insulin, whose job is to lower blood-glucose levels when they rise (as after a high-carbohydrate meal).
Without enough insulin secreted by beta cells, glucose levels will continue to rise in the blood plasma, a condition called hyperglycemia.
This is actually the main cause of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM, aka Type 1 Diabetes).

Describe how C. parvum obtains the glucose it needs for glycolysis after it has infected another cell. Explain the role of lacta
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

C. parvum takes energy from glucose which is present in the digestive tract after the process of glycolysis.

Lactate dehydrogenase which is responsible for the conversion of lactate into pyruvate molecule.

Explanation:

C. parvum is a protozoa that lives as a parasite in the digestive tract of animals. They take nutrients from the cell which are present in the form of glucose. C. parvum uses a specific type of enzyme i. e. lactate dehydrogenase which is responsible for the conversion of lactate into pyruvate and also helps in the production of ATP through glycolysis process. In this process, the glucose molecule is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate, two molecules of ATP, two molecules of NADH, and two molecules of water. So C. parvum takes ATP from that way from the host cells.
