Question

type 2 diabetes would be considered a(n) ____________. a. immune disorder b. autoimmune disorder c. single - gene disease d. complex disease please select the best answer from the choices provided. a b c d

Explanation:

Type 2 diabetes is influenced by multiple genetic and environmental factors. Immune disorders involve problems with the immune system's function. Autoimmune disorders occur when the immune system attacks the body's own tissues. Single - gene diseases are caused by mutations in a single gene. Complex diseases, on the other hand, are caused by a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Since Type 2 diabetes has multiple contributing factors (such as genetics, diet, lack of exercise, etc.), it fits the definition of a complex disease.

Answer:

D. complex disease
