Answer: Option C

Solution

Answer: Option C
Solution:
Vitamin-C is the thermo-sensitive vitamin.
Vitamin-C is a water-soluble and temperature-sensitive vitamin, so is easily degraded during cooking and elevated temperatures and long cooking times have been found to cause particularly severe losses of Vitamin-C. It can also leach out of vegetables when they're immersed in hot water.
