The correct option is C Vitamin-B complex

It forms coenzymes and plays a very important role in cell metabolism. It is necessary for erythropoiesis.
Vitamin B3 or pantothenic acid is a part of coenzyme A and is needed for cellular respiration and for normal skin and nerves.
Both of these belong to vitamin B complex.
So, the correct option is 'Vitamin-B complex'
