Solution

The correct option is D Roughage

Dietary fibres are also known as roughage. Roughage is mainly provided by plant products in our food. Whole grains, pulses, potatoes, fresh fruits and vegetables are the main sources of roughage. Roughage adds bulk and helps to eliminate the dietary wastes.
