Answer 2

Vitamins and minerals are required in minute quantities (Option D).

• In option A, carbohydrates and proteins are macronutrients i.e. these nutrients are required in large amounts. It is suggested that 45% to 65% of calories should be gained from carbohydrate sources and 10% to 35% of calories should be gained from protein sources. So option A is incorrect.
• In option B, fats are also a part of macronutrients i.e. fats are required in large amounts in our body. it is suggested that 20% to 35% of calories should be gained from fat sources. So option B is incorrect.
• For the same reasons as options A and B, option C is also incorrect.
• Vitamins and minerals are very important for our body. Vitamins and minerals are micronutrients i.e. the amount of vitamins and minerals required in our body is very small. This is why option D is correct.
