Roughage is (c) Non-Nutrient food.

Roughage:

• Roughage, often known as dietary fiber, is a part of plant-derived food that cannot be entirely broken down by human digestive enzymes.
• Dietary fibers vary in chemical composition and can be classified broadly based on their solubility, viscosity, and fermentability, all of which influence how fibers are metabolized in the body.
• Roughage is found in almost all plant diets. Among the finest sources are beans, lentils, wheat bran, pears, chia, and flax seeds.
• Avocados have the greatest fiber content of any vegetable.

Role of roughage:

• Roughage (or fiber) is a component of the body that cannot be digested.
• It gives your food more weight and helps your muscles push it through your stomach and intestines.
• It keeps your intestines in proper operating order and assists your body in eliminating all undigested meals.
• Roughage can be found in all plant foods.
• In general, grasses have more fiber and dry matter than legumes.
• Legumes have a higher protein, energy, vitamin, and mineral content.
