Impaired Fat Absorption in the Intestine Would Interfere with the Absorption

Question

Impaired fat absorption in the intestine would interfere with the absorption of
A) vitamin A.
B) vitamin B12.
C) vitamin C.
D) niacin.
E) riboflavin.

Accepted Answer

Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin, meaning it requires fats for proper absorption and utilization. Therefore, impaired fat absorption in the intestine would interfere with vitamin A absorption. The other vitamins listed (B12, C, niacin, and riboflavin) are water-soluble and do not require fat for absorption.
