A woman goes to the doctor for blood tests because she has not been feeling well. Tests show that the sugar levels in her blood are too high. In which gland does she most likely have a problem?

Answer
A
pancreas
B
ovaries
C
pineal
D
pituitary

Explanation

The pancreas produces insulin, a hormone that helps move sugar from the blood into cells. If the pancreas is not making enough insulin or the body cannot use it effectively, blood sugar levels can become too high. Therefore, the most likely gland involved is the pancreas.
