None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Although the recommended breakdown of carbohydrate, protein, and fat are the same for both genders, because men generally need more calories, they also require higher total intake of each of the macronutrients. Women need fewer calories than men, but in many cases, they have higher vitamin and mineral needs.

Detailed explanation-2: -Your calorie needs depend on age, height, gender, muscle mass and activity level. Muscle burns more calories than fat, so people with more muscle require more calories. Because women tend to be smaller and carry less muscle mass than men, their calorie needs are generally lower.

Detailed explanation-3: -Climate change puts at risk the food supplies of people in developing and developed nations alike. Floods, droughts, more intense hurricanes, heatwaves and wildfires can drive down crop yields, destroy livestock, and interfere with the transport of food.
