Solution

The correct option is A Kwashiorkor
The main cause of kwashiorkor is not eating enough protein or other essential vitamins and minerals. It's most common in developing countries with a limited food supply, poor hygiene and a lack of education about the importance of giving babies and children an adequate diet.
So, option A is the correct option.
