To determine the yield of cookies from one cup of sugar for Cookie A and Cookie B, we can analyze the information provided for Cookie A first.

From the data given for Cookie A:

- 2 cups of sugar yield 80 cookies. Therefore, for 1 cup of sugar:
\[
\text{Cookies per cup} = \frac{80 \text{ cookies}}{2 \text{ cups}} = 40 \text{ cookies per cup}
\]

- 3 cups of sugar yield 120 cookies. Therefore, for 1 cup of sugar:
\[
\text{Cookies per cup} = \frac{120 \text{ cookies}}{3 \text{ cups}} = 40 \text{ cookies per cup}
\]

- 4 cups of sugar yield 160 cookies. Therefore, for 1 cup of sugar:
\[
\text{Cookies per cup} = \frac{160 \text{ cookies}}{4 \text{ cups}} = 40 \text{ cookies per cup}
\]

So, Cookie A consistently yields **40 cookies per cup of sugar**.

Now, we need to find out how many cookies Cookie B makes from one cup of sugar. Since Cookie B's data is not provided here, we need that information to make a comparison. However, based on the options given, we see that Cookie B is listed as making either 36 or 72 cookies, but we will focus on the 36 cookie yield since it's generally lower.

Let's analyze the options based on what we found about Cookie A:

1. **Cookie B makes more cookies than Cookie A. Cookie B makes 72 cookies, and Cookie A makes 40 cookies.**
This option states Cookie B makes 72 cookies when it cannot since we know Cookie A makes 40 cookies.

2. **Cookie A makes more cookies than Cookie B from one cup of sugar. Cookie A makes 80 cookies, and Cookie B makes 36 cookies from one cup of sugar.**
This is incorrect since we know Cookie A only makes 40 cookies per cup.

3. **Cookie A makes more cookies than Cookie B from one cup of sugar. Cookie A makes 40 cookies, and Cookie B makes 36 cookies from one cup of sugar.**
This is now correct since Cookie A makes 40 cookies and if Cookie B makes 36 cookies, then Cookie A indeed makes more.

Based on these evaluations, the correct response is:

**Cookie A makes more cookies than Cookie B from one cup of sugar. Cookie A makes 40 cookies, and Cookie B makes 36 cookies from one cup of sugar.**
