Answer:

The options

a. riboflavin

b. vitamin D

c. pantothenic acid

d. folic acid

The CORRECT ANSWER IS d.

d. Folic acid

Explanation:

Having a healthy baby means staying healthy. Getting sufficient folic acid each day — mostly before conception and at early pregnancy as it reduces risk of serious neural tube defects (partial development of the brain and spinal cord) to a very large extent.

Folic acid (or folate) is a B vitamin (B9) found majorly in dark green vegetables (broccoli and spinach), legumes(beans and peas) and enriched grains.

It is essential for all women of childbearing age to get sufficient folic acid (necessary for cell growth and development plus DNA formation too)— not just those who are trying to conceive.

The ___ biome is characterized by moderate temperatures and high quantities of precipitation.
diamong [38]

Answer:

The temperate rain forest.

Explanation:

Temperate rain forests are similar in structure and precipitation amounts to a tropical rain forest. The difference is in the location and temperature of each. Tropical rain forests are located on and near the equator, and are incredibly warm and humid, with large amounts of precipitation. Temperate rain forests are found north of the Tropic of Cancer and have moderate temperature and humidity levels. The way to remember the difference is to notice that Temperate is a combination of 'moderate' and 'temperature' and can be said to mean "moderate temperature". I hope this is the answer you were looking for!
