Question

When we exercise, our bodies utilize macromolecules. The graph below is showing

the amount of each macromolecule during light, medium, and heavy exercise.
Blue First bar: proteins/ Red Second bar: fat/ Green third bar: carbohydrates
According to the information found in the graph, what argument can be made about
how macromolecules are utilized in the body?
People should consume more protein in their diet because it provides the most
energy during exercise.
People who plan to do more strenuous (harder) exercise need to be sure to
consume enough carbohydrates in their diet for energy.
Both carbohydrates and lipids are utilized in equal amounts during all levels of
exercises and should be consumed in moderate amounts in their diets.
People should consume less fat in their diets because it leads to obesity and
heart disease.

Answer 1

People who plan to do more strenuous (harder) exercise need to be sure to

consume enough carbohydrates in their diet for energy.

Step-by-step explanation:

First answer choice is not supported by the graph because the blue bar (protein) is very small in comparison to the others. The third choice only holds true for the “moderate” category. Finally, heart disease is not even mentioned. Hope it helps!
