Answer:

The correct answer is serotonin.

Explanation:

SIDS or sudden infant death syndrome refers to an inexplicable death, generally at the time of sleep, of a seemingly healthy baby of less than a 1-year-old. SIDS is also called crib death as the infants usually die in their cribs.  

In children who are diagnosed with SIDS, usually possess lesser concentrations of serotonin that assist in monitoring heart rates, breathing, and sleeping. Serotonin refers to a compound, which is found in blood platelets that constricts the blood vessels. At the same time, it also functions as a neurotransmitter. It is a chemical found in the brain, which transmits messages to other cells.

Answer:

Explanation:

There are two different types of vitamin A that can be obtained from food:

1.  Preformed vitamin A, which is already active, is found in animal products such as beef, fish, poultry and dairy products.

2. Provitamin A, which is the inactive form, is found in plant-based foods, such as fruits and vegetables. The most common type of provitamin A is β-carotene, which is a carotenoid that the body can turn into active vitamin A via an enzyme named β-carotene 15,15'-monooxygenase.
