Vitamins fall under two major groups, fat-soluble and water-soluble.- Fat-soluble vitamins include A, D, E, and K. Water-soluble vitamins include B-complex vitamins and vitamin C. - B-complex vitamins are of two main kinds, namely energy releasing vitamins and hematopoietic vitamins.Note: - Vitamins play a variety of regulatory roles in animals. Though they have practically no fuel value or energy value, they are very important for normal life processes.- Some of them control enzymatic activities as components of active sites of enzymes, while some others, especially fat-soluble vitamins are functionally similar to extracellular regulators.- Vitamins, in general play a significant role in intracellular metabolic regulation, growth, health, repair, and reproduction.
