Correct Answer RSPQ

The correct option is 3 i.e. RSPQ

The passage refers to surveys which reveal that malnutrition is common in developed countries. This however, is not Type A malnutrition that is the calorie and/or micronutrient deficiency of developing nations but Type B malnutrition that is multiple micronutrient depletion. The passage warns that the severity can become worse in newer micronutrient groups like fatty acids and flavonoids are included in the surveys. It claimed that commonly ingested levels are low in developed countries for these micronutrients.

The correct sequence will be:

Many national surveys reveal that malnutrition is common in developed countries. This is not the calorie and/or micronutrient deficiency associated with developing nations (Type A malnutrition); but multiple micronutrient depletion, usually combined with calorific balance or excess (Type B malnutrition). The incidence and severity of Type B malnutrition will be shown to be worse if newer micronutrient groups such as the essential fatty acids, xanthophylls and flavonoids are included in the surveys. Commonly ingested levels of these micronutrients seem to be far too low in many developed countries.
