    Show answer

    Answer: (2) Arachis hypogaea / (3) Linum usitatissimum

    సమాధానం: (2) ఆరాఖీస్ హైపోజియయా / (3) లైనమ్ యూసిటాటిసిమమ్

    Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea) seeds are about 25% protein and a good source of thiamin (vitamin B1). Flax (Linum usitatissimum) seeds are also rich in protein and very rich in thiamin, so TSLPRB's final key accepted both (2) and (3). Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) grain has only about 11% protein, and Brassica rapa is grown mainly as an oilseed and vegetable crop. (TSLPRB's final key also gave the mark to candidates who left this question unanswered.)
