Question

which food group is not typically rich in b vitamins? *
meat
whole grains
legumes
fruits
what happens to excess water - soluble vitamins in the body? *
they are stored in fat tissues
they are excreted through urine
they are stored in muscle
they accumulate in the liver
which symptom is not typically associated with mild vitamin c deficiency? *
increased muscle strength
fatigue
slow wound healing
dry, splitting hair

Explanation:

• First question: B - vitamins are abundant in meat (e.g., B12 in animal products), whole grains (e.g., thiamine in wheat), legumes (e.g., folate in lentils). Fruits are generally not a rich source of B - vitamins (they are better sources of vitamin C, vitamin A, etc.).
• Second question: Water - soluble vitamins (like B - vitamins and vitamin C) are not stored in large amounts in the body. Excess is filtered by the kidneys and excreted through urine. Fat - soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) are stored in fat tissues and the liver.
• Third question: Vitamin C is important for collagen synthesis (affecting wound healing), energy metabolism (fatigue can occur with deficiency), and hair health (dry, splitting hair). Increased muscle strength is not associated with mild vitamin C deficiency; in fact, deficiency may lead to muscle weakness due to connective tissue and energy metabolism issues.

Answer:

• First question: D. Fruits
• Second question: B. They are excreted through urine
• Third question: A. Increased muscle strength
