Which vitamin is essential for blood clotting?

Last Updated:

Questions may also test blood components, vitamins, glands, sense organs, communicable diseases, and deficiency disorders. This concept is important for examinations because SSC often converts a textbook statement into a direct MCQ or uses closely related terms as distractors. Restate the question in your own words, predict the answer before checking the options, and confirm that the explanation and correct-option field both point to Vitamin K.

AVitamin A
BVitamin C
CVitamin K
DVitamin B12
Correct Answer: Vitamin KYour Answer: C

Explanation

Vitamin A is incorrect because it refers to a different organ, substance, process, or medical association. Vitamin C is also incorrect; it may be biologically important, but its principal role or defining feature is not the one being tested here. Vitamin B12 is incorrect because its function, source, target, or disease relationship does not match the question. Decide whether it concerns anatomy, physiology, blood, hormones, vitamins, immunity, pathogens, or disease. Therefore option C, Vitamin K, is factually consistent with the stem, the marked correct index, and the explanation. Vitamin K is essential for the synthesis of clotting factors II VII IX and X. Without it blood cannot clot properly.
