The answer is vitamin D. This is actually a group of vitamins of similar molecular structure responsible for facilitating increased absorption of calcium, magnesium and phosphate from the gut. The most important of the vitamin D compounds are vitamin D3 and D2. While vitamin D can be obtained from your diet and supplements, the major source of vitamin D is from a chemical reaction dependent on skin exposure to the sun.
Asexual reproduction is a form of reproduction in which the number of chromosomes or the fusion of gametes is not altered.
Being genetically identical to the parent is advantageous for organisms when the environment changes fast, and reproduction is needed.
A gamete (a reproductive cell with one set of chromosomes, like an egg or sperm) combines with another to form a zygote, eventually developing into an organism of cells with two sets of chromosomes. Sexual reproduction is a type of reproduction that involves this complex life cycle (diploid).
The advantages of sexual reproduction are numerous. Several instances include:
more genetic variation
immunity against contagious diseases
fewer genetic diseases
Evolutionary fitness has increased

Gene expression in prokaryotes can be regulated at multiple stages including transcriptional and co-translational. Operons respond routinely to the presence of specific metabolites and change the availability of activators and repressors while speific end products of biosynthetic pathways can regulate the translatability of mRNAs for new proteins.
Prions are misfolded versions of normal proteins that can cause diseases. So the correct option is D.
<h3>What leads to prion disease? </h3>
A misfolded confirmation of proteins is called Prions. These misfolded proteins can result in harmful functional proteins and cause several diseases.
A prion is the type of protein that usually cause the normal proteins in the brain to fold in an abnormal manner. This results in misfolding of proteins in the brain.
Prion diseases are known to affect both humans and animals. Sometimes, humans get prion diseases by consumption of by meat from infected animals.
Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease is the most common prion disease in humans. The occurrence of prion diseases is rare. In the US, about 300 cases are reported every year.
Therefore the correct option is D.
