Answer: (D)
Solution
Each vitamin is paired with the disease caused by its deficiency. Lack of vitamin A causes xerophthalmia. Deficiency of thiamine, vitamin B1, causes beri-beri. Shortage of ascorbic acid, vitamin C, causes scurvy. Deficiency of riboflavin, vitamin B2, causes cheilosis. The correct pairing is vitamin A with xerophthalmia, thiamine with beri-beri, ascorbic acid with scurvy, and riboflavin with cheilosis.
