Best answer
The correct option is (a) Cannabinaceae

For explanation I would say: The hop plant belongs to the family Cannabinaceae that grows in the temperate regions of the world. It is used to impart bitterness and floral character in the brewing process. The resins and essential oils are flavour-active components of hops.
