Question

Assertion (A): Vitamin D cannot be stored in our body.
Reason (R): Vitamin D is fat-soluble vitamin and is not excreted from the body in urine.

• (A) and (R) are true, and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
• (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
• (A) is true, but (R) is false.
• (A) is false, but (R) is true.

Hint:

Fat-soluble vitamins like Vitamin D can accumulate in body tissues, unlike water-soluble vitamins that are excreted in the urine.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Vitamin D is indeed fat-soluble, meaning it can be stored in the body, specifically in the liver and fat tissues. Therefore, Assertion (A) is false. However, Reason (R) is true as vitamin D is not excreted in the urine, which helps in its storage.
