Answer:

Vitamin D-2, or ergocalciferol, is the form made by mushrooms from exposure to sunlight. Vitamin D-3, which is also called cholecalciferol, is the type that’s made in your skin. Both types must be converted into the hormone calcitriol before they’re active and able to benefit your body.

Explanation:

This hormone is called activated Vitamin D, or calcitriol, which is very important to your overall health and wellbeing. Your body makes around 90% of the Vitamin D it needs, but this can only happen when your skin gets enough direct UV light from sunshine.

It is also called as sunshine vitamin too..
