Solution

The correct option is C Vitamin D, Calcium
Exposure to the sunlight causes the skin of the body to synthesize vitamin D. This vitamin D helps in the synthesis of the calcium-binding protein which helps in binding the calcium in the food and thus promoting its absorption from the intestine. Thus, the correct answer is option D.
