The answer is the second one (Type 2 diabetes): characterized by insulin resistance and often associated with obesity.

Explanation for each option:

  • Type 1 diabetes: This type of diabetes is an autoimmune condition where the body's immune system attacks and destroys the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. It is not characterized by insulin resistance and is not typically associated with obesity. Instead, it usually requires insulin therapy from the onset.

  • Type 2 diabetes: This type of diabetes is characterized by insulin resistance, where the body's cells do not respond effectively to insulin. It is often associated with obesity and is more common in adults, although it can occur at any age. Lifestyle factors such as diet and physical activity play a significant role in its development and management.

In summary, Type 2 diabetes is the correct answer as it is characterized by insulin resistance and is often linked to obesity.

WHERE APPROPRIATE, SHOW WORK, ROUND APPROPRIATELY USE PROPER UNITS. Use the following information to complete the tables and answer the questions. Studies are often done by pharmaceutical companies to determine the effectiveness of a treatment program. Suppose that a new AIDS antibody drug is currently under study. It is given to patients once the AIDS symptoms have revealed themselves. Of interest is the average (mean) length of time in months patients live once starting the treatment. Two researchers each follow a different set of 40 AIDS patients from the start of treatment until their deaths. The following data (in months) are collected.
