2. What is the unit of force in the SI system?

• A. Newton (N)
• B. Kilogram (kg)
• C. Meter (m)
• D. Second (s)

Correct answer: A

3. Deficiency in which vitamin can lead to a condition called pernicious anemia, affecting vitamin B12 absorption in the digestive system?

• A. Vitamin A
• B. Vitamin B12 (cobalamin)
• C. Vitamin D
• D. Vitamin E

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Vitamin B12 (cobalamin). Pernicious anemia is a condition caused by a deficiency in vitamin B12, which is essential for the production of red blood cells and for the proper functioning of the nervous system. This vitamin is primarily absorbed in the digestive system, particularly in the ileum of the small intestine. In pernicious anemia, there is a lack of intrinsic factor, a protein produced by the stomach, which is necessary for the absorption of vitamin B12. Deficiencies in other vitamins like Vitamin A, Vitamin D, or Vitamin E do not directly lead to pernicious anemia. Therefore, the correct answer is Vitamin B12.
