Question

Which statement accurately describes vitamin A's role in epithelial cells? A Vitamin A deficiency results in the over production of mucus in mucus-secreting cells and reduced keratinization. B Vitamin A is required to maintain epithelial homeostasis and tissues affected by deficiency include skin, sweat, eyes, trachea, bronchi, salivary glands, and the genitourinary tract. C Excessive intake and concentrations of vitamin A have little effect on epithelial cells.
