Solution

The correct option is A Vitamins B and K
Thiamine, folate, biotin, riboflavin and panthothenic acid are water-soluble vitamins that are plentiful in the diet, but they are also synthesized by gut bacteria. Likewise, it has been estimated that up to half of the daily Vitamin K requirement is provided by the gut bacteria.
So, option A is the correct option.
