Answer:

The best answer to the question: Which statement made by friends would be considered most important at this time? Would be, C: She takes insulin for her sugar condition.

Explanation:

The first reason for this being vital information is that the drowning circumstance will immediately cause a spike in the energetic need by the body to supply the organs and their increased need for oxygenation. Therefore, it will not be unusual for her sugar condition to be in complete chaos due to the drowning and the effects of lack of oxygen will have. Also, the spike in energetic requirements will happen due to the submersion in water, which will bring down the temperature. The muscles will therefore require glucose to function. By alerting the EMT body that the patient has a sugar condition will prevent them from resorting to any solution that may have glucose in them, or will encourage them to administer insulin as the need arises.
