Solution

The correct option is D Biotin
The vitamin essential for synthesis of lipids is biotin.
Biotin is required for carboxylase enzymes that are important in the metabolism of fatty acids and amino acids. Thus it acts like a coenzyme in the metabolism of fatty acids (types of molecules found in fats and oils).
