Answer: Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

The most common cause of the preventable brain damage is due to iodine deficiency disorder.

It can actually slow down the nation's economic and social development. It can damage the brain and that aids in limiting the cognitive behavior of the people.

Sometimes it can be more severe and deafness and spastic paralysis can also takes place due to this deficiency.
