A

Answer 2

'A well-balanced diet give athletes' is the wrong phrase in the context of the sentence. (Option A)

• Here, the word that is to be changed is 'give'. It will be changed into 'gives' such that the sentence is correct, grammatically.
• When the sentence's subject is plural, the verb used will also be plural and similarly, the verb is also singular when the subject is singular.
• So, the diet gives the athletes the necessary energy.
