Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Vitamin A-birth defects, hair loss, dry skin, headaches, nausea, dry mucous membranes, bone and joint pain

Vitamin D-deposits of calcium and phosphorus in soft tissues, kidney and heart disease, and bone fragility

Vitamin K-a form of anemia

B complex that includes B6, thiamine, folate, and niacin:

B6-depression, nerve damage

Thiamine-no known ill effects from excess oral route

Niacin-vasodilation of blood vessels

Folate-could mask a B12 deficiency

Vitamin C-elevated uric acid level, kidney stones, hemolytic anemia, and rebound scurvy
