The question asks about what increases in the bloodstream during sedentary behavior when large muscle groups are dormant. 
Option 1: Fat and sugar. This is the correct pairing because when muscles are not actively contracting, their uptake of circulating triglycerides (as fatty acids) and glucose (sugar) decreases. This reduced peripheral clearance tends to leave more fat and glucose circulating in the blood, contributing to higher blood lipid and glucose levels. 
Option 2: Protein and sugar. While sugar (glucose) may be elevated with reduced uptake, protein is not typically described as a circulating factor that increases due to sedentary behavior in the same way fats and sugars are. The statement blends two substances that don’t share the same mechanistic link under sedentary conditions. 
Option 3: Fiber and sugar. Fiber is a dietary component that affects digestion and glucose absorption indirectly, but it does not circulate in the blood as a metabolic substrate in the context described. This pairing misrepresents the physiological consequence of sedentary muscle inactivity. 
Option 4: Protein and fat. Fat may indeed circulate at higher levels when muscles are inactive, but protein is not typically highlighted as a primary circulating metabolite affected by sedentary behavior in this context. The combination therefore does not accurately reflect the described metabolic change. 
In summary, the core idea is that sedentary muscle inactivity reduces uptake of circulating metabolites like fatty acids and glucose, leaving more fat and sugar in circulation, which aligns with Option 1. The other options mix substances that do not share the same primary mechanistic link to sedentary inactivity, making them incorrect.
