Right choice is (b) OSMOTIC diuretic like activity being a hyperglycaemic

The best I can explain: Polyuria is URINATION several times a day. This is a common symptom for all diabetes patient. Being hyperglycemia it acts as an osmotic diuretic thus INCREASES the renal fluid absorption and thus urination is maximum. Thirst from dehydration is polydipsia. Hunger is POLYPHAGIA.
