Question
Chapter 12.4, Problem 12.15YT
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The vitamin for which dosage needs to be monitored has to be explained from the structures for vitamins A, C, D, and K.
Concept Introduction:
Vitamins are the organic molecules which are essential in trace amounts obtained from the diet. These cannot be synthesized in the body. Vitamins are classified into water-soluble vitamin and fat soluble vitamin. Water soluble vitamins are found in the aqueous environment inside the cells and fat soluble vitamins are stored in the body’s fat deposits.
