Question

Directions (Q. Nos. 71 to 95) : Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow. A strict vegetarian is a person who never in his life eats anything derived from animals. The main objection to vegetarianism on a long-term basis is the difficulty of getting enough protein—the body-building element in food. If you have ever been without meat or other animal foods for some days or weeks (say, for religious reasons), you will have noticed that you tend to get physically rather weak. You are glad when the fast is over and you get your reward of a succulent meat meal. Proteins are built up from approximately twenty food elements called ‘amino acids’, which are found more abundantly in animal protein than in vegetable protein. This means you have to eat a great deal of vegetable than animal food in order to get enough of these amino acids. A great deal of the vegetable food goes to waste in this process and from the physiological point of view there is not much to be said in favour of life-long vegetarianism. We feel weak when we go without meat

• A. because we are reducing our food intake
