Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Incomplete Protein Foods. According to Harvard Health Publishing, all animal-based foods, including meat, dairy, and eggs, contain complete protein. The majority of plant-based protein sources, such as whole grains, legumes, seeds and nuts, spinach, broccoli, and mushrooms, are incomplete.
Detailed explanation-2: -Beans are incomplete proteins because they are low in one key amino acid (amino acids are used by the body to build protein) called methionine. Cereal grains-including corn, rice and wheat-are high in methionine yet lack another amino acid found in beans.
