Question

match the vitamin to the deficiency disease
scurvey
choose
wernigues
choose
pemicious anemia
choose
rickets
choose
xeropthalmia
choose
cheliosis
choose

Explanation:

To solve this matching problem, we recall the relationships between vitamins and their deficiency diseases:

• Scurvy: Caused by vitamin C (ascorbic acid) deficiency.
• Wernicke - Korsakoff syndrome (note: likely a typo "werniques" for Wernicke): Caused by thiamine (vitamin B₁) deficiency.
• Pernicious anemia: Caused by vitamin B₁₂ deficiency.
• Rickets: Caused by vitamin D deficiency (in children).
• Xerophthalmia: Caused by vitamin A deficiency.
• Cheilosis: Caused by riboflavin (vitamin B₂) deficiency.

Assuming the dropdowns contain vitamins like Vitamin C, Thiamine (B₁), Vitamin B₁₂, Vitamin D, Vitamin A, Vitamin B₂ etc., we match as follows:

1. Scurvey (Scurvy) → Vitamin C
2. Werniques (Wernicke - Korsakoff) → Thiamine (Vitamin B₁)
3. Pernicious anemia → Vitamin B₁₂
4. Rickets → Vitamin D
5. Xeropthalmia (Xerophthalmia) → Vitamin A
6. Cheliosis (Cheilosis) → Vitamin B₂

Answer:

1. scurvey - Vitamin C
2. werniques - Thiamine (Vitamin B₁)
3. pernicious anemia - Vitamin B₁₂
4. rickets - Vitamin D
5. xeropthalmia - Vitamin A
6. cheliosis - Vitamin B₂
