Discussion
State whether the following is true or false.
Type 1 and type 2 diabetes both result from a failure to produce insulin.
Answer: C
Correct answer: False
The two are different diseases. Type 1 is autoimmune destruction of the pancreatic beta cells, so insulin genuinely is not produced and must be replaced. Type 2 is primarily resistance: insulin is produced, often in increased amounts at first, but the target cells respond poorly, and secretion may fail later as the beta cells are exhausted. The distinction determines the treatment entirely.
