Solution

The correct option is B Vitamins
Vitamins B and C are water soluble vitamins whereas vitamins A, D, E and K are water insoluble or fat soluble vitamins. Washing the vegetables after cutting them can lead to the loss of the water soluble vitamins. Therefore, it is recommended to wash the vegetables before they are cut.
