Vedclass · Answer

(B) Vitamin $B_2$ (Riboflavin) is naturally found in cereals,green vegetables,brewer's yeast,egg white,milk,and liver. This makes the Assertion correct.Vitamin $B_2$ is also produced commercially using microorganisms,specifically certain yeasts and fungi like $Ashbya$ $gossypii$. This makes the Reason correct.However,the commercial production of vitamin $B_2$ by yeasts is a separate industrial fact and does not explain why it is found in the specific food sources mentioned in the Assertion. Therefore,the Reason is not the correct explanation for the Assertion.
