Question

Match the Vitamins given in Column I with the diseases caused by their deficiency as given in Column II.

• A. A-S B-R C-P D-Q
• B. A-Q B-P C-S D-R
• C. A-S B-R C-Q D-P
• D. A-P B-S C-Q D-R

Hint:

When studying vitamin deficiencies, focus on understanding their functions in the body and the diseases that arise when these vitamins are deficient.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

In this question, we need to match the vitamins with the diseases caused by their deficiency. Let's break it down: 
Vitamin K (A) is involved in blood clotting and its deficiency leads to a condition called Haemophilia (S). Hence, A = S.
Vitamin B$_1$ (B) is important for carbohydrate metabolism and its deficiency causes a disease known as Pernicious Anaemia (R). Hence, B = R.
Vitamin B$_2$ (C) plays a role in energy production, and its deficiency leads to a condition called Chelosis (P), which is a disease of the mouth. Hence, C = P.
Vitamin D (D) is essential for bone health, and its deficiency leads to Osteomalacia (Q), a condition of softened bones. Hence, D = Q. 

Thus, the correct matching is: A = S, B = R, C = P, D = Q.
