Answer:

a. True

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement being made is true. The Fasted State is where our bodies draw from glycogen and fat reserves in order to create energy. This happens only when we do not eat that we enter into this state. The body first needs to draw all the energy it can from the glycogen stores and then once that is depleted it then begins to draw from fat stores for energy. Using all the stored macronutrients and turning them into energy to sustain the body.
