Vedclass · Answer

(D) During prolonged fasting,the body exhausts its glycogen stores and begins to break down stored adipose tissue (fats) for energy.This process leads to the production of fatty acids,which are metabolized in the liver into ketone bodies (such as acetoacetate,beta-hydroxybutyrate,and acetone).As the concentration of these ketone bodies increases in the blood (ketosis),they are excreted through the urine,a condition known as ketonuria.Therefore,the presence of abnormal amounts of ketones in the urine is a characteristic sign of prolonged fasting or starvation.
