2. Niacin

                            Biochemistry
                            Answer: 4
                            Vitamin D is crucial for the maintenance of bone health as it aids in the 
absorption of calcium from the digestive tract and facilitates the incorporation 
of calcium into bones. A deficiency in vitamin D can lead to osteoporosis, a 
condition characterized by weak and porous bones that are more susceptible to 
fractures, which is common in the elderly. While vitamin A (Answer 1) is 
important for vision and skin health, and niacin (Answer 2) and thiamine (Answer 
3) have roles in energy metabolism and nerve function, respectively, vitamin D's 
primary role in calcium homeostasis makes it most relevant to bone loss in older 
individuals.
