Correct Answer: Kwashiorkor


Solution : The correct option is Kwashiorkor .

A severe type of malnutrition known as Kwashiorkor is brought on by a diet low in protein, namely in the essential amino acid category. This disorder often affects children, while adults can also be impacted. It is most frequently seen in places where the availability of high-protein meals is restricted. Children who have Kwashiorkor frequently lose their appetite, which makes it more likely that they won't consume enough vital nutrients.
