But let's explore some ways we can understand blood sugar readings in the morning and how we can gain better control. One of the most common causes of high morning blood sugars is excess glucose production from the liver. Our bodies were built with some internal mechanisms for creating balance.

As you learn about elements with more than eighteen electrons you will find that shell three can hold more than eight. Once one shell is full, the next electron that is added has to move to the next shell. So... for the element of SILICON, you already know that the atomic number tells you the number of electrons. That means there are 14 electrons in a silicon atom. Looking at the picture, you can see there are two electrons in shell one, eight in shell two, and four in shell three.
