Explanation

Page 9 asks this question after the chapter explains sources of food. Pages 7-8 describe that we eat different parts of plants (leaves, fruits, roots) and things taken from animals (milk, curd, ghee, cheese, paneer, honey, eggs, meat). The example of lassi shows how yogurt/curd (animal based) and sugar from sugarcane (plant based) combine to make a food item.

Solution Steps

  1. Food items can combine both plant-based and animal-based ingredients

  2. Paneer curry: Paneer from milk (animal) with spices and vegetables (plant)

  3. Rice with dal: Rice (plant) combined with ghee from milk (animal)

  4. Bread with butter: Bread from wheat (plant) with butter from milk (animal)

  5. Kheer: Rice (plant) combined with milk (animal)
