- 4. All of the following are fat-soluble vitamins except
Options- A. Vitamin C
- B. Vitamin A
- C. Vitamin D
- D. Vitamin K Also asked in: AIEEE, Bank Exams, CAT, Analyst, Bank Clerk, Bank PO
Correct Answer: Vitamin C
Explanation:
A vitamin is an organic molecule that is an essential micronutrient that an organism needs in small quantities for the proper functioning of its metabolism.
There are 13 essential vitamins that our body need. They are categorized into
1. Water soluble
2. Fat soluble
Water-soluble vitamins dissolve in water, which means these vitamins and nutrients dissolve quickly in the body. Unlike fat-soluble vitamins, water-soluble vitamins are carried to the body?s tissues, but the body cannot store them.
Water-soluble vitamins are Vitamin B1, B2, B3, B5, B12, B6, B7 & B9 and Vitamin C.
Fat-soluble vitamins are soluble in fats. They are absorbed by fat globules that travel through the small intestines and into the general blood circulation within the body. Unlike water-soluble vitamins, fat-soluble vitamins are stored in the body when they are not in use.
Fat-soluble vitamins are - Vitamin A, D, E and K.

Options- A. all enzymes have the same shape as their substrates
- B. enzymes are proteins
- C. enzymes work best at a specified ph
- D. the shape of an enzyme allows it to do its job Also asked in: AIEEE, Bank Exams, CAT, Analyst, Bank Clerk, Bank PO

- 7. Which of the following does nutritional genomics study?
Options- A. how certain nutrients affect an individual's gene expression
- B. the precise amount of micronutrients the body needs
- C. the protein content of an individual
- D. the genetic sequence of an individual's genome Also asked in: AIEEE, Bank Exams, CAT, Analyst, Bank Clerk, Bank PO
Correct Answer: how certain nutrients affect an individual's gene expression
Explanation:
Nutritional genomics is a science studying the effects of food and food constituents on gene expression and the relationship between human genome, nutrition and health. It is also known as nutrigenomics. It also studies how genetic variations affect the nutritional environment.
