Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the role of sulfur in nutrition: Sulfur is a key component of certain amino acids (like methionine and cysteine) and is also found in some vitamins.
Recall the classification of vitamins: Vitamins are categorized into water-soluble (e.g., B-complex and vitamin C) and fat-soluble (e.g., vitamins A, D, E, and K).
Identify which vitamins contain sulfur: Sulfur is specifically found in some B-complex vitamins, such as thiamine (B1) and biotin (B7).
Eliminate incorrect options: Vitamins A and K are fat-soluble and do not contain sulfur. Water-soluble vitamins include both B-complex and vitamin C, but sulfur is not a component of vitamin C.
Conclude that the correct answer is B vitamins, as they include sulfur-containing vitamins like thiamine and biotin.
