Abstract Diabetes mellitus is a condition in which the body is unable to produce sufficient insulin (needed by the body to convert glucose energy) leading to high blood glucose levels (Fusco‚ Gonzales‚ & Yeung‚ 2015). There are two types of diabetes‚ type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes (Westerberg‚ 2013). Type 1 diabetes is caused by the bodies inability to produce insulin as opposed to type 2 diabetes which is caused by inadequate insulin production or absorption (Fusco et al.‚ 2015). Type 1 diabetics

The means by which insulin can be regulated depends upon which type of diabetes a patient has. Complete the chart with a 25- to 50-word response for each box.

and on a rat that has been induced with Type 1 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disorder in which the body attacks the insulin producing beta cells of the pancreas. The pancreas is then incapable of producing insulin‚ and thus the body’s blood glucose levels become elevated.[iii] Hypothesis Based on the given information for type 1 diabetes‚ in this report‚ a hypothesis can be made that insulin given to a subject with type 1 diabetes would help lower his or her blood glucose levels
