A
Type I
B
Type II
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Type 2 diabetes (ranging from predominantly insulin resistance with relative insulin deficiency to predominantly an insulin secretory defect with insulin resistance)

Detailed explanation-2: -Most people who develop type 2 diabetes first have insulin resistance, a condition in which the body’s cells use insulin less efficiently than normal. As insulin resistance develops, more and more insulin is needed to keep blood sugar levels in the normal range.

Detailed explanation-3: -Type 2 diabetes is characterized by a combination of peripheral insulin resistance and inadequate insulin secretion by pancreatic beta cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Type 2 diabetes is also called type 2 diabetes mellitus and adult-onset diabetes. That’s because it used to start almost always in middle-and late-adulthood.

Detailed explanation-5: -Insulin resistance happens when your body requires a high amount of insulin to manage blood glucose (also known as blood sugar). Insulin resistance is a problem found in people with prediabetes and type 2 diabetes, but it people with type 1 diabetes can become insulin resistant, too.
