Hi Esmond,
My understanding is that there is an genetics is a risk for Type 1 diabetes. Am I correct.
Hi Dawn, you are correct. Previously it was thought that genetics only played a role in type 2 diabetes but now they have found it has a role in type 1 diabetes as well. However the genetic role in type 2 diabetes has a stronger correlation than in type 1. You can also post these questions in the exam forum.
Thanks
Esmond
