A
Feedback:
The EAR is the amount of a nutrient that is estimated to meet the requirement of half of healthy people in a lifestyle or gender group.

Answer to Question 2

Vitamin E needs are related to intake of polyunsaturated fats because vitamin E prevents their oxidation. Vitamin E needs are not related to intakes of protein, vitamin C, and monounsaturated fats.
