Answer:

The given blanks can be filled with rickets, vitamin D deficiency and completely.

Explanation:

In the given case, it is clear that James is breastfed in the initial time of his life and since then is not drinking milk and is not consuming any form of dairy products. The milk and its products are the richer sources of vitamin D. It is for sure that the boy James is deficient of vitamin D and on the test can be diagnosed with the condition known as rickets. Rickets is the condition that arises due to the extreme deficiency of vitamin D. It is a rare condition that generally gets witnessed in children who are breastfed and do not consume milk in the future.  

Rickets is a condition in which the bones bend and turns softer. However, the condition can get treated completely if the child gets an accurate amount of vitamin D from his or her diet or from the supplements.
