• A. Zinc
• B. Iron
• C. Vitamin A
• D. One of the vitamin B

Answer 1

The correct option is D One of the vitamin B

When pyruvate breaks down, it produces small bonded carbon molecules (C2). When they react with CoA, the combined molecule becomes acetyl-CoA. Coenzyme A is a cofactor – it assists an enzyme to provide an effect. Co-A is produced through the ingestion of vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid or pantothenate)

Hence the correct answe is (D)
