Answer
Solution:
Diabetes is a condition where the pancreatic cells of a person stops producing or reduces the production of insulin hormone. Insulin regulates blood glucose by converting extra glucose to glycogen. When insulin is not produced adequately, a person’s blood glucose level is affected and this leads to adverse effects. In order to maintain the insulin and blood glucose levels, diabetes patients are treated with injections of insulin.
