Answer:
b. complementary proteins
Explanation:
Complementary proteins are proteins that contain all adequate amounts of the essential amino acids when two or more protein sources that are deficient or low in some amino acids are combined together to compensate for the deficiency of the other. The protein sources can be eaten together in a meal or consumed the same day to get a complete protein.
For example, grains are deficient in lysine, while legumes are usually deficient in methionine. Combination of rice which is a grain, together with beans which is a legume, would give us complementary protein diet, making it a complete protein source with all adequate essential amino acids available.
