Diabetes type 2 is a condition that caused by relative lack of insulin. It called relative because it might be caused by the reduction of insulin or resistance of the cell. In this case, the pancreas cell still alive but their work is not enough.
So, the treatment used would be to decrease glucose absorption, increase cell sensitivity to insulin(like metformin), or increasing the amount insulin secreted by drugs like sulphonylurea. Insulin injection will be the last choice.

In diabetes type 1, the pancreas cell is already destroyed. In this case, sulphonylurea drug won't work since there <span>is </span>no pancreas cell left to secrete insulin. Increasing sensitivity also won't work since there won't be any insulin. The only treatment for diabetes type 1 is insulin injection.

What human activities affect the water, carbon, and the nitrogen cycle what are the consequences

Mademuasel [1]

The nitrogen cycle is impacted by humanswhenever fertilizer is applied to farmland to help crops grow. This adds nitrates to the soil. If soil erodes, the nitrates are transported and deposited in the nearest body of water. This can cause algae to overgrow in a process called eutrophication. The lake will run out of oxygen as the algae die off and bacteria begin their decomposition.Sessile organisms are greatly affected.
