Final answer:
The major food allergen group identified by the FDA that is listed among the option (B) is soy. Other important information provided includes the identification of vitamin C as a water-soluble vitamin and carbon as not being a micronutrient, in contrast to minerals.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the FDA, one of the eight major food allergen groups is soy option (B). The eight major allergen groups identified by the FDA are milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, and soy. These allergens are responsible for the majority of allergic reactions related to foods. The Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act requires these to be listed on food labels when they are used as ingredients.
For the other reference questions, vitamin C is the water-soluble vitamin among the following options: vitamin A, vitamin E, vitamin K, and vitamin C. As for micronutrients, the element that is not a micronutrient is carbon (C). Micronutrients include such elements as calcium (Ca), cobalt (Co), and copper (Cu). Phytochemicals are compounds produced by plants and can be found in foods like fruits, vegetables, grains, beans, and other plants. Inorganic substances in the context of nutrition include all minerals, and not vitamins, as vitamins are organic compounds.
