Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. Here are some sites for Type 2 Diabetes and Insulin:

1. http://www.aafp.org/afp/20040801/489.html

2. http://www.diabetes.org/type-1-diabetes/insulin.jsp

3. (Part II of #2): http://www.diabetes.org/type-2-diabetes.jsp

4. http://www.endocrineweb.com/diabetes/2diabetes.html

5. (Wikipedia) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diabetes_mellitus_type_2

There is a resistance to insulin with Type 2 Diabetes. If these sites do not answer your question, please post again.
