Correct Answer: Vitamin C

Solution : The correct answer is Vitamin C .

Vitamin C is the only vitamin that is not present in animal foods. Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin that is required for a variety of body processes such as wound healing, immunological function, iron absorption, collagen formation, and antioxidant protection. Vitamin B ₁₂ (cobalamin) is a microbial-derived water-soluble vitamin. It occurs naturally in animal foods such as meat, poultry, fish, eggs, milk, and other dairy items. The body can produce vitamin D when the skin is exposed to sunlight. In animal-based foods, vitamin K is present in small amounts, primarily as vitamin K2 (menaquinone).
