Around 1–1.5 g per kg is a good range for folks who aren't competing professionally.

Yes, for a normal lifestyle you need about 0.8 to 1 g per kg of body weight. If you work out or do strength training, you'll need more to build muscle and recover.

Of course. Most of the time it's about 1.5–2 g per kg of body weight.

Yes. 1 g is enough to maintain. If you're lifting and building muscle, aim for 1.2–1.6 g (the exact amount depends on intensity).

Yes. Depending on your activity level and gender, it can range from 0.6 to 1.4 g per kg body weight.

For people who don't train intensely, yeah. It's fine to take a bit less, but aim for this amount, I guess.

Yes, protein needs are usually 0.65–1.5 g per kg body weight, and can go up to 1.5 g depending on your goal and workout intensity.

Even 0.5 g can be enough; try it on yourself for a few months and you'll see why the supplement industry gets a lot of flak.
