1 – B (C is also true)
2 – D
Edit: Smartypants, people with Type 1 diabetes are not always born with it. Many times the symptoms do not develop until they are in their teens. Actress Mary Tyler Moore was in her early 30s when she was diagnosed with "juvenile" diabetes.

B and D. Type 1 diabetes is the type you are born with, sometimes called Juvenile diabetes because you are born with it. Type 2 is called Adult Onset because you develop it later in life. There is no preventing Type 1, sometimes Type 2 can be prevented by diet and exercise.

Type 1 diabetes IS treated with insulin injections, is NOT preventable, IS treated with diet and exercise and IS monitored with daily blood sugar levels. I know physical activity is good for diabetics because it helps circulation in the legs and feet and helps control the blood sugar. B = helps prevent type 2 diabetes. C is false. And D is false.
