Solution

The correct option is A Rubber
Latex is a miliky, white emulsoin, composed with 30-40% rubber particles, 55-65% water, and small amounts of protein, sterol glycosides, resins, ash, and sugars. Natural rubber latex consists of particles of rubber hydrocarbon and nonrubber substances dispersed in an aqueous serum phase.

So the correct option is 'Rubber'.
