The correct option is A A- 2, B- 4, C- 3, D- 1

Pernicious anemia is a condition caused by too little vitamin B${}_{12}$ in the body. It is a form of vitamin B${}_{12}$ deficiency anemia. Vitamin B${}_{12}$ helps the body make healthy red blood cells and helps keep nerve cells healthy. It is found in animal foods, including meat, fish, eggs, milk, and other dairy products. Tetany occurs spontaneously in many forms and may also be produced by the destruction of the parathyroid glands. Beriberi refers to a cluster of symptoms caused primarily by a nutritional deficit in vitamin B${}_1$ (thiamine). Addison's disease is a disorder that occurs when your body produces insufficient amounts of certain hormones produced by your adrenal glands. Thus, option A is correct.
