i do not know why it is so hard for most posters not to select an OA while posting or to obscure the OA if it is written as part of the original post.
i select a particular question and before i can even read the question, i read "OA is E". please use the guidelines of posting questions.
secondly, please UNDERLINE the sentences. it may take you 30 more secs, but will surely help the readers. thank you

Regardless means without regard. Using irregardless means double negative, which is not correct. It is not same like using irregular!
B irregardless of the other nutrients, physical activity, and emotional state.
reasoning as stated above.
C regardless of the quantity of nutrients or physical exercise and emotional excitation
Quantity of nutrients ??? missing word ingested. Emotional excitation is wrong.
D regardless of the quantity or form of nutrients or physical exercise and emotional statement
it's physical exercise Or emotional state (not statement)
E regardless of the quantity or form of other nutrients ingested,physical activity ,or emotional stateright.

Jumbling multiple topics under one tag is not right. Again, when you tag, please give specific tags rather than general tags as Sentence Correction. It will make life simpler for so many responders and archivers.
