Answer: C -A person experiencing frequent urination with excessive thirst and hunger may be in the early stages of diabetes. The excessive thirst comes from dehydration; the dehydration is caused by the frequent urination; the frequent urination is caused by the excess glucose in the vasculature unable to transport into cells. The excess glucose in the interstitial space draws water into the vasculature, and the kidneys then shed the glucose with the water, inadvertently dehydrating the body.
