Explanation:

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease. It is caused when the body’s immune system kills the beta cells (cells responsible for producing insulin). Type 2 diabetes is caused when your body loses sensitivity to insulin or fails to respond to the insulin produced by the body. The “pancreas”, which encapsulates insulin-producing cells, is capable of naturally producing insulin in a sustained manner.
