hmmm, I will choose E.

The conclusion is saying that pregnant women suffer because of higher requirements of vitamins. But it might be possible that the higher requirement of vitamins is not in the diets of pregnant women.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Regards,

Alex

I will go with E.

The term "higher requirements" is not properly defined.

Folks
Are u sure about E?

To me it seems C is best

vitamin deficiency is calculated based on a reference point. Now if some grps naturally have more req than others .... the ref pt from which deficiency is calculated is questionable ....

will wait for the OA

i think the answer is D.

The argument claims vitamin deficiency in pregnant women as a result of high needs, hence it should show similar incidence of vitamin deficiecy in other high vitamin requiring groups

Another vote for C folks. Do we know the OA?

C brings out the fact that the term Vitamin deficiency has been erroneously used to compare two sets of people with different set of requirements .. hence deficiency for one group is not necessarily deficiency for other.
