Solution

The correct option is A True
Type II diabetes is mostly seen in youngsters, often adolescents. This form is due to the destruction of the receptors for insulin on cells. It is an autoimmune disorder which results in insulin being relatively useless, as it is unable to pull glucose into cells without its receptor. This form of diabetes does not require insulin injections can be treated with healthy diet and exercise
