Insulin provides a way for your body to control how fast it uses the energy you eat, and when. If it weren't for insulin, you'd be low-energy when hungry, and high-energy right after a meal, which would make hunting new food very difficult.
You'd probably starve to death the first time you didn't eat for a while, since without insulin you'd be unable to save your energy for when you need it most, so you'd be too weak to go find (hunt?) more food.
What it actually does is simple. Glucose in your blood provides the fuel for almost all body functions. But your body's cells can't admit glucose for fuel without a small amount of insulin present, to indicate 'permission' to consume that energy. That insulin is produced by the beta cells of the pancreas.
Mitochondria is the power house of the cell.It generates energy through respiration.
Insulin.
It is a long acting insulin.

The chemical formula of insulin is C256H381N65O79S6
-Human insulin does not cost as much as pig/animal insulin -Human insulin does not result in allergic reactions, such of insulin of an animal.
yes...because regular insulin and Isophane Insulin(NPH) is a human-made form of insulin. Insulin is a hormone produced naturally by pancreas
The insulin that we engineer bacteria to make (E.colidoes not naturally make insulin) is identical to human insulin.
An insulin pump can be used as an alternative to multiple daily injections of insulin by insulin syringe.This method is known as continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion therapy.
No . . . human insulin is made from pig insulin, quite often.
