Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The brain requires a minimum of 130 g/day of glucose, which is the recommended daily allowance for carbohydrate. Option A (10 g/day) is too low and would not provide enough glucose for the brain. Option B (45 g/day) is also too low and would only provide enough glucose for basic bodily functions. Option D (250 g/day) and Option E (400 g/day) are both too high and may lead to weight gain and other health issues if consumed in excess.
