B. hyperglycemia
Hyperglycemia is the technical term for high blood glucose. The food you eat gets digested and broken down into a sugar your body's cells can use. This is glucose.

The answer is letter B.

Hyperglycemia is a condition in which the body has abnormally high levels of blood sugar. It is a condition that would increase the risk of a person having type 1 or type 2-diabetes. This disease needs immediate medical attention and should be managed highly by an individual. A person who has high levels of blood sugar may often feel thirsty and frequently feels the need to urinate. Other ways of preventing this is to make changes in the daily food intake of an individual which mostly consists of low sugar and high fiber diets.
