Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Match the vitamin to its corresponding deficiency disorder:

- Vitamin B₁₂ is linked to Pernicious anaemia (A–IV).
- Vitamin D deficiency results in Rickets (B–III), a condition characterized by an imbalance of calcium and phosphate affecting bones.
- Vitamin B₂ (Riboflavin) deficiency causes Cheilosis (C–I), marked by cracked lips and inflammation at the corners of the mouth.
- Vitamin B₆ (Pyridoxine) deficiency can lead to Convulsions (D–II) due to its involvement in neurotransmitter synthesis.

The correct pairings are: A–IV, B–III, C–I, D–II
