Like mitochondria, chloroplasts likely originated from an ancient symbiosis, in this case when a nucleated cell engulfed a photosynthetic prokaryote. Indeed, chloroplasts resemble modern cyanobacteria, which remain similar to the cyanobacteria of 3 million years ago.
Your doctor will test your blood glucose in the office. If it is below 100 milligrams of glucose per deciliter of blood (mg/dL), it is normal. Borderline diabetes or prediabetes occurs when your fasting blood glucose is between 100 and 125 mg/dL. A level of 126 mg/dL or above indicates diabetes.
Prediabetes is a âpre-diagnosisâ of diabetesâyou can think of it as a warning sign. Itâs when your blood glucose level (blood sugar level) is higher than normal, but itâs not high enough to be considered diabetes. If your blood glucose level is between 100 and 125mg/dL, you have prediabetes. 2  You may hear the doctor use the phrase âimpaired fasting glucoseâ or IFG, which is another term for prediabetes when itâs diagnosed with the fasting plasma glucose test.
