Correct Answer: Ascorbic acid


Solution : The correct option is Ascorbic acid.

Vitamin C, often known as Ascorbic acid, is the vitamin that is most easily damaged by heat. Vitamin C is heat-sensitive and readily destroyed when exposed to heat during cooking or food preparation. To preserve more vitamin C in meals, it is suggested to use low-heat cooking methods or to consume fruits and vegetables fresh or with minimum cooking.
