I think I found a discrepency in the compilation. The very first question in the Nutrients compilation (from 2000 under the subtitle 'Nutrient Deficiencies')

The question asked about a vitamin deficiency (which has to be Vitamin C) that is LEAST likely to have the following...The answer said C, but I think it's E.

Vitamin C deficiency causes Hemarthroses, Scurvy, Subperiosteal hematomas, and Defective collagen synthesis (all of those were listed in the notes AND in the scribe).

Vitamin D deficiency would cause deformation of the long bones.

Good catch, Erin!
Sometimes I think all those Sesame Street shows I watched blew my mind--"one of these things is NOT like the other..." I LOVED doing that one when it came on in the show (or was it 'Electric Company'?? Hmm-getting grey--seriously, I found two, count 'em, TWO grey hairs on my head yesterday)

Absolutely, you are correct.
So, the first practical q in the Nutrition compilation should be 'E' not 'C'.

Why not "A" as the answer? Isn't that an X-linked hemophilia problem, thus, not related to ANY sort of vitamin deficiency? Oh well...game time
