Answer:

(c) 16-24 calories

Explanation:

In the  question it is provided that 4 - 6g of  highly concentrated glucose product helps to get on the feet within 20 to 30 minutes.

Also we know that 1 gram of glucose contains 4 calories.

Therefore,

4g of glucose = 4 × 4 calorie

                       = 16 calories

6g of glucose = 6 × 4 calorie

                       = 24 calories

Thus, we can say that the minimum number of calories needed to bounce back after the workout is 16 - 24 calories

Hence, the correct answer is option (c) 16-24 calories
