Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)

సమాధానం చూపించు & వివరణ

సమాధానం: (C) (A) is true, but (R) is false

వివరణ

A is true: most vitamins must come from the diet. R is false: the body cannot synthesise essential micronutrients (that is why they are 'essential'). It makes only a few vitamins, such as D (skin) and some B and K via gut bacteria.
