Type 2 Diabetes is also known as "adult onset diabetes." It is sometimes causes by being overweight. However, it can also occur in normal weight people if there is a history of diabetes in the family. It is when your pancreas is not putting out enough insulin to support the body. It can sometimes be cured by diet and exercise.

Type 2 diabetes is a chronic disease characterized by high blood glucose levels. Type 2 diabetes is also referred to as adult-onset diabetes because it is most often obtained later on in life due to poor diet. If you have type 2 diabetes, you do not have to rely on direct injections of insulin, but you have to regulate your blood sugar and monitor your sugar intake.

Type 2 diabetes: The pancreas secretes insulin, but the body is partially or completely unable to use the insulin. This is sometimes referred to as insulin resistance. In the past Type 2 diabetes was referred to as adult-onset diabetes mellitus. However this name is not commonly used today, because Type 2 Diabetes is being seen in younger individuals and not just adults in their mid 40's.

Type 2 Diabetes can be described as a situation whereby the blood sugar level gets elevated exponentially. This leads to increased level of water and salt retention, raised levels of insulin, increase in very LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein) which is a bad form of cholesterol and the growth of cancer cells at a rapid pace.

Does taking insulin turn type 2 into type 1?

I believe that Type 1 is an autoimmune disease and Type 2 is not, so with Type 1 auto antibodies are present and with Type 2 they are not. Therefore, I do not believe that taking insulin can turn Type 2 into Type 1. The cause of Type 1 is still unknown.

Relationship between type 1 error and type 2 error?

In statistics, there are two types of errors for hypothesis tests: Type 1 error and Type 2 error. Type 1 error is when the null hypothesis is rejected, but actually true. It is often called alpha. An example of Type 1 error would be a "false positive" for a disease. Type 2 error is when the null hypothesis is not rejected, but actually false. It is often called beta. An example of Type 2 error would be a "false negative" for a disease. Type 1 error and Type 2 error have an inverse relationship. The larger the Type 1 error is, the smaller the Type 2 error is. The smaller the Type 2 error is, the larger the Type 2 error is. Type 1 error and Type 2 error both can be reduced if the sample size is increased.
