Explanation

Maximum oxygen intake, or VO₂ max, is measured in milliliters of oxygen per kilogram of body weight per minute. A typical sedentary person’s level is about 35 ml/kg/min, so the correct choice is 35 ml/kg/min. Higher values, such as 70 ml/kg/min, are more typical of highly trained athletes.
