Which statement explains how a rat’s blood glucose levels will most likely be affectedby the high-carbohydrate meal? A. The rat’s blood glucose level will increase after eating, which will cause insulin levels to rise until bloodglucose decreases below the pre-meal level. B. The rat’s blood glucose level will increase after eating and, after the rat is given an insulin injection, willquickly decrease to the pre-meal level. C. The rat’s blood glucose level will increase for several hours after eating, and then will gradually decreaseover several hours to the pre-meal level. D.
