Solution

The correct option is C leguminous
Members of the family Fabaceae are leguminous plants. These plants have the ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen with the help of nitrogen fixing bacteria that live in the root nodules of leguminous plants. Due to their ability to fix inorganic nitrogen into organic nitrogen, these plants usually have huge amounts of protein in their products. These protein-rich legumes form an important part of the diet that fulfills our protein requirement.
