Solution

The correct option is D Water soluble vitamins
Water-soluble vitamins are directly absorbed into the intestine and transported to water as they do not require any emulsification because water is free to move in and out but fat soluble liquids absorb into lymph due to their insolubility in water and they need to emulsify before absorption.
So the correct option is 'Water-soluble vitamins'
