b. A – 3, B – 2, C – 4, D – 1
c. A – 4, B -1, C -2, D – 3

Solution
Human body involves various systems to function properly. The excretory system includes the kidney and it contains nephrons. It plays a very important role in the removal of waste. The waste must contain a certain amount of substances in it excess of any substance such as glucose may cause disease. Kidney stones can also affect renal tubules.
Complete answer:
Kidney plays very important in our body for the filtration, re-absorption, and removal of waste from the body. Various diseases may occur if there is malfunctioning of the kidney. It can also cause presence of important substances in the urine which must be utilized by the body. The condition characterized by an excess of sugar in the urine is known as Glycosuria. It is associated with diabetes or kidney disease.
If there is accumulation of undigested food in the kidney that remains for a longer time, it can cause kidney stones, or renal calculi. These are the solid masses made of crystals.
Glomerulus are the filtering capillaries of the kidney. The condition in which inflammation occurs in the tiny filters in the kidneys is called glomerulo-nephrirtis.
In various body parts such as bones or joints the uric acid accumulates and causes a kind of arthritis called gout.
So, the correct answer is option c that is A – 4, B -1, C -2, D – 3.
Note:
Glucosuria is the normal condition in all individuals in amounts up to 25 mg/dl (1-5). The damage to the kidney affects the nephrons, it can occur due to injury or poisoning. The damage to nephrons appears in many years. In the U.S, approximately 8.3 million people suffer from gout. It begins from the big toe and becomes more chronic and progressive.
