The correct answer is C.

Type 2 diabetes is caused by poor diet and lifestyle. Unfortunately more young people are being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes as the numbers of childhood/teen obesity are on the rise, children/teens have poor nutritional diets due to poverty or neglect and children/teens are not as active as they used to be 20 - 30 years ago.
