Which of the following is NOT a symptom of diabetes melltus?
a. glucosuria
b. polyuria
c. polyphagia
d. all listed symptoms are associated with diabetes melitus
e. polydipsia

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct option is d. all listed symptoms are associated with diabetes melitus

Explanation:

Diabetes, the short name for Diabetes mellitus, is a group of metabolic disorders. In this condition, the sugar level in the blood of the patient is high for a prolonged period.

Some of the symptoms of untreated diabetes include-

1. polyuria: excessive urination

2. polyphagia: increased hunger or appetite

3. polydipsia: excess thirst

4. glucosuria : excretion of glucose into the urine. Normally, the kidneys absorb the blood sugar back into the blood vessels. But due to the increased blood sugar levels, the kidneys do not absorb enough blood sugar and passes it into the urine.

Therefore, all of the listed symptoms are associated with diabetes mellitus.

Answer:

D. all listed symptoms are associated with diabetes melitus

Explanation:

Diabetes mellitus is a disease that prevents your body from properly using the energy from the food you eat. Diabetes occurs in one of the following situations:

The pancreas (an organ behind your stomach) produces little insulin or no insulin at all. Insulin is a naturally occurring hormone, produced by the beta cells of the pancreas, which helps the body use sugar for energy.

-Or-

The pancreas makes insulin, but the insulin made does not work as it should. This condition is called insulin resistance.

To better understand diabetes, it helps to know more about how the body uses food for energy (a process called metabolism).

Your body is made up of millions of cells. To make energy, the cells need food in a very simple form. When you eat or drink, much of your food is broken down into a simple sugar called glucose. Glucose provides the energy your body needs for daily activities.

The blood vessels and blood are the highways that transport sugar from where it is either taken in (the stomach) or manufactured (in the liver) to the cells where it is used (muscles) or where it is stored (fat). Sugar cannot go into the cells by itself. The pancreas releases insulin into the blood, which serves as the helper, or the "key," that lets sugar into the cells for use as energy.

When sugar leaves the bloodstream and enters the cells, the blood sugar level is lowered. Without insulin, or the "key," sugar cannot get into the body's cells for use as energy. This causes sugar to rise. Too much sugar in the blood is called "hyperglycemia" (high blood sugar).

Classic Signs include:  Polyuria, Polydipsia, and Polyphagia.

Additionally, Glycosuria is a condition in which a person's urine contains more sugar, or glucose, than it should. It typically occurs due to high blood sugar levels or kidney damage. Glycosuria is a common symptom of both type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. Renal glycosuria occurs when a person's kidneys are damaged.
