What disease is caused by insulin deficiency?

Options

A. Multiple Sclerosis
B. Diabetes mellitus
C. Scleroderma
D. Rheumatoid arthritis(RA)

Answer

B

Explanation

Multiple Sclerosis is a potentially disabling disease of the brain and spinal cord. In this, the immune system attacks the protective sheath (myelin) that covers nerve fibers and causes communication problems between the brain and the rest of the body
Diabetes Mellitus is a condition defined by persistently high levels of sugar (glucose) in the blood. Pancreas produce a hormone called insulin, which is essential to help glucose enter the body’s cells. In a person without diabetes, the pancreas produces more insulin whenever blood levels of glucose rise and the insulin signals the body’s cells to take in the glucose. In diabetes, either the pancreas’s ability to produce insulin or the cells’ response to insulin is altered.
Scleroderma is a long-lasting disease that affects skin, connective tissue and internal organs. It happens when the immune system causes the body to make too much of the protein collagen, an important part of skin. As a result, the skin gets thick and tight, and scars can form on lungs and kidneys.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a long-term, progressive and disabling autoimmune disease. It causes inflammation, swelling and pain in and around the joints and other body organs.
