This means it plays a key role in wound healing and maintaining a strong skin barrier. The other options don’t match vitamin A’s main actions: bone calcium is governed mainly by vitamin D and minerals, blood pressure is regulated by fluids and hormones, and iron absorption is more strongly influenced by vitamin C and other factors.
