Question

Which is the water soluble vitamin?

• A. Vitamin A
• B. Vitamin B
• C. Vitamin D
• D. Vitamin K

Answer 1

Answer:

B. Vitamin B

• Vitamins are classified into two broad categories based on their solubility: Water-soluble and Fat-soluble.

• Water-soluble vitamins dissolve in water and are generally not stored in the body, meaning they must be replenished regularly through diet.

• Excess amounts of water-soluble vitamins are usually excreted through urine.

Classification of Vitamins

• Water-Soluble Vitamins: These include the Vitamin B-complex group (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, B12) and Vitamin C.

• Fat-Soluble Vitamins: These are stored in the body's fatty tissue and the liver. They include Vitamin A, Vitamin D, Vitamin E, and Vitamin K (often remembered by the acronym ADEK).
