Solution
Vitamins :
The micronutrients that are required by the body in small amounts for the proper functioning of the body.
Vitamins are two types:
Fat-soluble vitamins (vitamins such as A, D, E, and K are soluble in fats)and water-soluble vitamins ( vitamins such as B and C are soluble in water ).
Vitamin B and C are excreted in urine as they are solubilized in water present in urine.
Vitamin A, D, E, and K are not soluble in water.
Therefore, they are not excreted in the urine.
Final Answer: Thus, the vitamin which is generally excreted in urine by humans is vitamin B and C.
