Solution

The correct option is D fats
If we observe oily patches on a piece of paper in which food is wrapped, this shows the presence of fat in the food item.
Paper is made up of cellulose fibers with lot of minute crystalline structures in it. These crystals are supposed to be opaque in normal conditions. When brought in contact with oily parts, the opacity decreases and hence paper becomes transluscent.
