Which statement may plausibly explain type II diabetes, but not type I diabetes?​
Nikolay [14]

The statement that may explain type II diabetes is that a protein that is normally activated by the insulin receptor does not perform its function. That is option C.

<h3>Causes of type II diabetes</h3>

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder that occurs due to the inability of the body cells to utilize the insulin produced as seen in type II diabetes or the inability of the pancreatic cells to produce insulin in enough quantity.

In type II diabetes, there is presence of insulin in the bloodstream of the patient but the body cells are not able to make use of it to metabolize glucose.

This is because when the protein that is activated by insulin receptor fails to function, problems with insulin signalling can occur which impairs the proper management of glucose levels in the blood.

Therefore, the statement that may explain type II diabetes is that a protein that is normally activated by the insulin receptor does not perform its function.
