Solution

The correct option is A Cannabis sativa
Hemp is a commonly used term for high-growing varieties of the Cannabis sativa plant and its products, which include fiber, oil, and seed. Hemp is refined into products, such as hemp seed foods, hemp oil, wax, resin, rope, cloth, pulp, paper, and fuel. Items ranging from rope to fabrics, to industrial materials were made from hemp fiber. Hemp was often used to make sail canvas, and the word canvas derives from cannabis.
Thus, option B is correct.
