The answer is the third one (or C): Vitamin C and copper.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Vitamin A and iron: While iron is indeed crucial for hemoglobin synthesis, vitamin A is not directly involved in the enzymatic processes that synthesize hemoglobin. Vitamin A is more related to vision, immune function, and skin health.

  2. Vitamin D and iodine: Vitamin D is important for calcium metabolism and bone health, and iodine is essential for thyroid hormone production. Neither of these is directly involved in the synthesis of hemoglobin.

  3. Vitamin C and copper: Vitamin C is important for the absorption of iron from the diet, which is a critical component of hemoglobin. Copper is a cofactor for several enzymes involved in the formation of hemoglobin, such as ceruloplasmin, which helps in iron metabolism.

Summary: The coenzymes needed for some of the enzymes that synthesize hemoglobin are Vitamin C and copper.

Amanda and her husband are each starting a saving plan. Amanda will initially set aside 650 and then add 165 every month to the savings. The amount A (in dollars) saved this way is given by the function A=650+165N, where N is the number of months she has been saving. Her husband will not set an initial amount aside but will add 385 to the savings every month. The amount B (in dollars) saved using this plan is given by the function B=385N. Let T be total amount (in dollars) saved using both plans combined. Write an equation relating T to N. Simplify your answer as much as possible.
