O Levels Biology (5090)•5090/11/O/N/18

Explanation
Foods targeting specific nutrient deficiencies for scurvy, anemia, and rickets
Steps:
- Identify scurvy as vitamin C deficiency, prevented by oranges and lemons.
- Identify anemia as iron deficiency, prevented by red meat.
- Identify rickets as vitamin D deficiency, prevented by cheese and milk.
- Match option listing these foods in sequence: citrus, red meat, dairy.
Why D is correct:
- D aligns foods to deficiencies in order: oranges/lemons supply vitamin C for scurvy, red meat provides iron for anemia, cheese/milk offer vitamin D for rickets.
Why the others are wrong:
- A lists dairy first, mismatching scurvy's vitamin C need.
- B uses dairy for anemia (lacks iron focus) and vague "oranges and meat" for rickets.
- C repeats D's sequence but fails to uniquely specify the preventive trio per standard nutritional mapping.
Final answer: D
