Question 15 • Contemporary Health

Which disease is related to a malfunctioning pancreas?

Answer
A
type 2 diabetes
B
sickle cell disease
C
Huntington’s disease
D
lupus

Explanation

The pancreas produces insulin, a hormone that helps control blood sugar. In type 2 diabetes, the body does not use insulin effectively, and the pancreas may not make enough to keep blood sugar controlled. Sickle cell disease, Huntington’s disease, and lupus are not primarily caused by a malfunctioning pancreas.
