Match the following vitamins with their sources and the corresponding diseases caused by their deficiency. $\begin{array}{llllll}
\hline & \text{Vitamins }& & \text{Sources} & & \text{Diseases} \\
\hline (A) & \text{Vitamin-}B _1 & (i) & \text{Egg-whites} & (p) & \text{Convulsions} \\
\hline (B) & \text{Vitamin-}B _2 & (ii) & \text{Fish} & (q) & \begin{array}{l}
\text{Pernicious} \\
\text{anemia}
\end{array} \\
\hline (C) & \text{Vitamin-}B _6 & (iii) & \begin{array}{l}
\text{Green} \\
\text{vegetables}
\end{array} & (r) & \text{Cheilosis} \\
\hline (D) & \text{Vitamin-}B _{12} & (iv) & \text{Grams} & (s) & \text{Beri-Beri} \\
\hline
\end{array}$
  1. (A-ii-r), (B-iv-p), (C-iii-s), (D-i-q)
  2. (A-iv-p), (B-ii-q), (C-i-r), (D-iii-s)
  3. (A-iii-s), (B-i-r), (C-iv-p), (D-ii-q)
  4. (A-i-q), (B-iii-s), (C-ii-r), (D-iv-p)

Solution

$\begin{array}{llll}
\hline \text{S.No.} & \text{Vitamins} & \text{Sources} & \text{Diseases} \\
\hline \text{(A)} & \text{Vitamin-} B _1 & \text{Green vegetable, peas, nuts, breads} & \text{Beri-Beri (Thiamine deficiency)} \\
\hline \text{(B)} & \text{Vitamin-} B _2 & \text{Egg-whites, milk, mushrooms} & \text{Cheilosis, (dry skin, mouth ulcers etc)} \\
\hline \text{(C)} & \text{Vitamin-} B _6 & \text{Grams, pork, peanuts, oats, banana} & \text{Convulsions, (anemia, abnormalities)} \\
\hline \text{(D)} & \text{Vitamin-} B _{12} & \text{Fish, meat, poultry, eggs} & \text{Pernicious (anemia)} \\
\hline
\end{array}$ Hence, correct match is (A-iii-s), (B-i-r), (C-iv-p), (D-ii-q). /
