D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Oliguria is the medical term for low urine output. If you have a blockage, your kidneys are producing urine but you aren’t able to excrete it. If you aren’t producing urine, you may have diseases of the kidneys, heart or lungs. The best way to treat oliguria depends on what is causing the low urine output.

Detailed explanation-2: -One of the most obvious renal failure symptoms is a decrease of urine. This symptom occurs in 70 percent of cases. Many people with acute kidney failure only create 16 ounces of urine a day (the average adult urinates between 34 to 50 ounces per day).

Detailed explanation-3: -The most common cause of oliguria is dehydration. Dehydration is when your body doesn’t have enough water or fluids-generally because it’s losing more than it’s taking in. This can happen when you sweat a lot on a hot day or have a stomach bug that causes diarrhea or vomiting.
