Options

AVitamin C
BVitamin E
CVitamin K
DVitamin B

Correct answer

C. Vitamin K

Step-by-step solution

Vitamin helpful in the blood clotting is Vitamin K . Vitamin K is a fat soluble vitamin required for normal blood clotting. Its deficiency leads to slow or delayed blood clotting and haemorrhage (blood loss). Vitamin K is required for synthesis of prothrombin in the liver where the vitamin K-dependent carboxylation in prothrombin synthesis occurs. Note: Question has been slightly modified for its correctness.
