Step 1: Identifying Water Soluble Vitamins — All B-complex vitamins and vitamin C are water-soluble.
Step 2: Excretion vs. Storage — Most water-soluble vitamins are excreted in urine if consumed in excess, preventing accumulation in the body.
Step 3: Identifying the Exception — Vitamin (cobalamin) is a notable exception that is water-soluble but can be stored in the liver for several years. Correct option is (d).
Key Point: This is why clinical signs of deficiency may take a long time to develop.
