Answer:A. Increase in prevalence of obesity and genetic changes

Explanation:

The most likely answer from the options that has led to the increase in type 2 diabetes is an increase in prevalence of obesity and genetic changes and this is because both obesity and genetics are very strong risk factors for developing type 2 diabetes.

The second option which is an increase in consumption of high fructose corn syrup is a little off because when your pancreas is functioning very well and insulin is being secreted properly, the body will definitely take care of the fructose meal without leading to type 2 diabetes.

The third option which is an increase in gestational diabetes is usually a temporary increase in blood sugar that is related to pregnancy and usually resolves soon after given birth.

The last option which involves increase in allergies and autoimmune disease is not really implicated in type 2 diabetes but instead autoimmune diseases is directly linked to type 1 diabetes and not type 2.
