Solution

The correct option is A Soyabeans
The soybean is a species of legume native to East Asia, widely grown for its edible bean which has numerous uses. The plant is classed as an oil seed rather than a pulse by the UN Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO).
Fat-free soybean meal is a significant and cheap source of protein for animal feeds and many prepackaged meals; soy vegetable oil is another product of processing the soybean crop. For example, soybean products such as textured vegetable protein are ingredients in many meat and dairy analogues. Traditional nonfermented food uses of soybeans include soy milk, and from the latter tofu and tofu skin. Fermented foods include soy sauce, fermented bean paste, natto, and tempeh, among others. The oil is used in many industrial applications.
