Correct answer: A. Both A and B
- A. Both A and B
- B. Formation of osteoid matrix
- C. Calcification of osteoid
- D. Maturation of procollagen

Vitamin C is required for hydroxylation during procollagen maturation and supports formation of the collagen-rich osteoid matrix. It is not primarily responsible for calcifying the osteoid, so both A and B are correct.
