Solution
The correct option is C Arachis hypogea
The peanut or groundnut (Arachis hypogaea) is a species in the family Fabaceae. The peanut was probably first domesticated and cultivated in the valleys of Paraguay. Peanut oil is often used in cooking, because it has a mild flavor and a relatively high smoke point. Due to its high monounsaturated content, it is considered healthier than saturated oils, and is resistant to rancidity. This oil is obtained from seeds. Seed oil is not obtained from Cicer arietinum (chick pea), Saccharum officinarum (sugar cane) and Saccharum munja (munja).
Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
