Final Answer:

Conditions such as starvation, dieting, and diabetes mellitus could result in the production of increased fatty acids (Option A) and ketone bodies (Option B).

Step-by-step explanation:

Starvation, dieting, and diabetes mellitus are conditions that affect the body's energy metabolism. In situations where glucose is not readily available for energy production, the body starts breaking down alternative sources. Starvation and dieting can lead to increased production of fatty acids as the body turns to fat stores for energy. In diabetes mellitus, where insulin function is impaired, there can be increased fatty acid release and ketone body production due to incomplete fat metabolism.

Options A and B correctly identify the products associated with these conditions. Options C and D are not directly related to the conditions mentioned, and options E, F, G, and H combine various elements incorrectly.

Options A and B are the answer.
