- 3. What is type 1 diabetes? Dictionary Term: A disorder of the metabolism causing excessive thirst and the production of large amounts of urine. Type 1 diabetes is when your pancreas can no longer produce insulin. When we ingest glucose (sugar) it enters our bloodstream, but this is not possible without insulin. Insulin makes it possible for the cells to take in glucose. Without insulin our bodies can not receive energy and the body doesn’t grow, because the glucose can never enter our bloodstream. It is a metabolic disorder because it has to do with our digestive system and how it breaks down our nutrients, and this is how it relates to Diabetes.
- 4. Diabetes Free! People without diabetes have a functioning pancreas. This means that the pancreas is giving the right amount of insulin for the amount of food a person might eat. This means the body’s blood sugar level is decreasing by itself. This happens every time a person without diabetes eats.

Pancreas produce little or no insulin. Body produces insulin but not properly.
- 6. How to prevent type 1 diabetes? There is no way to prevent type 1 diabetes, little is known about the disorder. What is known is that some factors that cause it are genetic and can be because of an exposure to a virus. Doctors are unable to tell who will have it and who will not, but if a family member (parents or siblings) have it, the chances are increased for that entire family. A mother and a father both give 23 chromosomes to their baby. From this we have the X and Y chromosome and the 23rd chromosome from dad determines the sex of the baby. If the y is present the baby is a boy. The Y chromosome gives characteristics, and so does the inactive type 1 diabetic gene. If one of the genes given to the baby is the gene that carries the type 1 diabetes disorder the child can grow up and be diabetic or the child may not. What this mean is that like the Y gives male traits to the baby, the type 1 diabetic gene can determine traits of the baby if the gene is active.
