Solution

The correct option is C Glycosuria
Glycosuria is the excretion of glucose into the urine. Normally urine contains no glucose because the kidneys are able to reabsorb all of the filtered glucose back into the bloodstream. Glycosuria is nearly always caused by elevated blood glucose levels, most commonly due to untreated diabetes mellitus.
