The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Glycosuria**: - Glycosuria is a medical condition characterized by the presence of glucose (sugar) in the urine. This occurs when the kidneys excrete excess glucose that is not reabsorbed back into the bloodstream. 2. **Identifying the Cause**: - The primary cause of glycosuria is often related to diabetes mellitus, where there is insufficient insulin production (hyposecretion of insulin) or the body's cells become resistant to insulin. This results in high blood sugar levels. 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option 1**: "Eat more sugar" - This does not define glycosuria; it merely describes an action that could lead to increased blood sugar but is not a condition itself. - **Option 2**: "Excrete sugar in urine" - This accurately describes glycosuria, as it is the condition where glucose is found in the urine. - **Option 3**: "Sugar is excreted in feces" - This is not related to glycosuria; it pertains to digestive processes. - **Option 4**: "Has low sugar level in the blood" - This condition is known as hypoglycemia, which is the opposite of what occurs in glycosuria. 4. **Conclusion**: - The correct answer is **Option 2: Excrete sugar in urine**, as this directly defines the condition of glycosuria.
