Solution

The correct option is B Fruits
Opium is the dried latex obtained from the opium poppy or Papaver somniferum. The latex is obtained by scratching the immature seed pods or the fruits by hand (Traditional method). As a result, the latex leaks out and dries to a sticky yellowish residue that is later scraped off and dehydrated.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
