svet-max [94.6K]
Skill related fitness components help a person perform certain tasks that involve motion/movement. Sports, recreational activities, and games are examples of activities that involve motor movements. The different skill related components are: agility, balance, coordination, power, reaction time, and speed.

The goal of achieving a certain level of fitness through the skill-related components could help an individual perform better in sports. But in able to do this, one must be particularly aware what exact skill-related component does a particular sport demand to successfully practice and develop the skills it needs. A sport may have combinations of these components at certain levels, and one must make sure that the training that will commence will be very specific to the demands of those particular skills.  
<span>
An example is surfing, where an individual needs both balance and coordination to be able to successfully stand on top of the board. To achieve this, one must specifically train coordinating and balancing activities (e.g. core exercises, planks) to improve on the sport.</span>

Kruka [31]

Answer:  B. An individual has an autoimmune disorder that destroys the beta cells of the pancreas.

C. An individual’s insulin receptors are defective.

Diabetes mellitus is a common disease. In this disease the level of sugar in the blood is affected. This occurs when pancreas does not produce enough insulin or the receptors involving insulin also become resistant to insulin, which is a sugar balancing hormone.

Type 1 diabetes involves the complete lack of production of insulin by the beta cells of the pancreas. The beta cells of pancreas are destroyed by the body's self immune system.

Type 2 diabetes involves the development of insulin resistance by the target cells of the body. The insulin secretes but cannot compensate for the increase in blood glucose levels due to due to defective receptors on target cells.

On the basis of above explanation, B. and C. are the correct options.
