Diabetes is the sixth-leading cause of death among Americans. Diabetes is a disease that affects the way the body changes food into energy. Diabetes causes the body to not make enough of the hormone insulin. Insulin is needed by the body to change sugar into energy. A low amount of insulin results in high levels of sugar in the blood. This sugar in the blood passes into the urine.

1. Why is insulin needed by the body?

2.   What does a low amount of insulin in the body result in?

Another type of cardiovascular disease, congestive heart failure, is the gradual weakening of the heart muscles that occurs over a long period of time. This condition occurs in person with diseased arteries and hypertension. A known factor that contributes to developing this type of heart failure is the use of illegal drugs, such as cocaine, crack cocaine, heroin.

1. What happens in a person who has congestive heart failure?

2.   When does congestive heart failure occur?

3.   What is a known factor that can contribute to developing congestive heart failure?

A person will often experience problems with; speech, vision, balance, and their ability to move various parts of their body.

1. Explain a known factor that contributes to developing congestive heart failure.

2.   Explain the causes of a stroke and what is happening when a person is having one.

3.   Explain the result of the loss of blood flow to the brain, and problems associated with it.
