Marcia is diagnosed with hypermetabolism.  One pathological cause of hypermetabolism is thyroid disorder (hyperthyroidism). It could also be caused by injury or infection in the body. There is no single treatment for the disorder since it is merely a symptom of an underlying problem. It could be managed by nutritional support coupled with pharmacological treatment such as diuretics and regular insulin.

Answer:

The correct answer will be- the color change will be observed and the solution will turn purplish-black.

Explanation:

Iodine test is performed to test the presence of the carbohydrates mainly starch.

The iodine solution is chemically called potassium iodide which forms a yellow solution. The potassium iodide solution forms a complex with a starch solution which appears a purplish-black color which shows the presence of the carbohydrates.

In the given question, if we add the iodine solution to the beaker after a certain point of time then it will still form a complex with the starch and thus beaker solution will appear darker in color.
