Correct Option: A
Children who receive very little sunshine (source of vitamin D) suffer from rickets, a skeletal disorder that results from a lack of vitamin D. Rickets is most common in children who are between 6 and 36 months old. Rickets has mostly disappeared in developed countries due to the introduction of fortified foods, such as cereals with added vitamin D.
