The statement "It must remain within normal range because the brain needs a constant supply of sugar" is true. The brain relies on a constant supply of glucose as its primary energy source, and thus blood sugar levels must remain within a narrow range to ensure the brain receives the necessary glucose it requires.

Answer: D 
 Both statement A and B are true. Blood sugar levels must remain within a normal range to ensure the brain receives a constant supply of glucose, and glucagon secretion can help to decrease blood sugar levels by stimulating the liver to release stored glucose.
