(B) The Respiratory Quotient $(RQ)$ is defined as the ratio of the volume of $CO_2$ evolved to the volume of $O_2$ consumed during respiration.For carbohydrates, the $RQ$ is equal to $1$.For proteins and fats, the $RQ$ is less than $1$ (usually around $0.7$ to $0.9$).For organic acids, the $RQ$ is greater than $1$.Therefore, the correct answer is $Protein$.
