Answer:

B. Energy needs

Explanation:

As an individual ages there is a characteristic natural loss of muscle mass that occurs and increases as they move into older years. Changes in lifestyle, such as transition from employment to retirement, also account for a decrease in energy needs. This is because there is less amount of work done during retirement than when an individual is actively working.

The less amount of work is the reason why there is also a corresponding decrease in the energy needs.
