Answer:

The correct option is B) simple carbohydrates, such as sports drinks, fruit, and yogurt

Explanation:

Our body stores carbohydrates in the form of glycogen. During exercise sessions, the glycogen stored is converted into glucose. Glucose is the main energy source of the body and is used to produce ATP by cellular respiration.

After exercise,the glycogen storage in the body  gets lowered. Hence, to store carbohydrates in the form of glycogen we need to intake simple carbohydrates such as a sports drinks, fruits etc to compensate.
