10 percent in persons
• Type 1 diabetes occur in
children and teen
• Type 1 Diabetes may happen
in adults but it will be called

or type 1.5

6. Diabetes and More

an in a short period of
time

because your body has
problems with how it
functions with the insulin.

many of your muscle don’t
work properly with the
insulin

14. Standards
• BI 9.c. Students know how to feedback loops in
the nervous and endocrine system regulate
conditions in the body.
• This standard relates to my topic because the
pancreas is located in the endocrine system and
the diabetes take place in the pancreas

15. Standards
• BI 4.d. students know specialization of cells in
multicellular organisms is usually due to different
patterns of gene expression rather to differences of
the genes themselves
• This standard relates to diabetes because
sometimes diabetes can be passed by generations of
ancestors that deals with your genes because you
can be a carrier or have diabetes

16. Standards Linked Together
• My standards are linked together because they
talk about the pancreas and were the insulin is
made and they also talk about the genetics and
how the diabetes can be passed from one
another
