Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

Free fatty acids contribute to the problems as these are involved in regulating the beta-cell equilibrium that leads to the beta cell dysfunction in a higher level of free fatty acids and increases the risk of obesity and type 2 diabetes.

Higher free fatty acids in the blood caused resistance to the insulin by disturbing the transport of the glucose into the muscles.  

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
