  1. Two richest known sources of edible protein are
    1. meat and eggs
    2. milk and vegetables
    3. soyabean and groundnut
    4. some type of algae and other micro-organisms
Correct Option: C

The richest sources of protein are animal foods such as chicken, meat, fish, cheese and eggs. However, plant proteins are believed to be healthier because of their lower fat content. Plant protein is found (e.g.) in beans (esp. soy beans), lentils, nuts, quorn and seeds. Fish and seafood are some of the richest sources of protein. One-half of a typical fillet of halibut or salmon provides approximately 41g of protein. Soybeans are legumes that provide a valuable protein-rich food option for vegetarians and non vegetarians alike. One cup of boiled soybeans provides over 28g of protein.
