Solution

The correct option is C
In diabetic person, rise in the blood glucose level above normal level (100mg/ 100ml) indicates that body is not capable of stimulating insulin through islets of langerhans, which in turn increases the blood glucose levels.

The graph which is shown in option 'c' is indicating diabetes as it is showing that glucose is not removed from the blood and stored as glycogen which will increase the blood glucose level in the blood with time.
