C. Ergot
D. Cocoa plant

Answer 1

All of these narcotic drugs i.e., Charas, Bhang and Ganja are hallucinogenic products which are obtained from Cannabis sativa. These are cannabinoids.

Complete answer:
Charas, Bhang and Ganja are narcotic drugs as they have sleep inducing properties and also they are hallucinogenic products. These are obtained from different parts of Cannabis sativa and it is a hemp plant.
Charas is a form of cannabis which is handmade in Indian subcontinent, it is made from resin of cannabis plants. It is obtained from resinous secretion from the flowering top of female plants.
Bhang is an edible preparation of cannabis which is used in food and drink, it is mixed with milk. It is obtained from fresh and dried leaves and the flowering shoots of male and female plants.
Ganja is a Hindi name for hemp which is also a preparation from cannabis sativa. It is obtained from unfertilised female inflorescence.
If we look at options now, option A is Poppy seeds. It is incorrect since charas, ganja and bhang are obtained from cannabis sativa which is also called a hemp plant. Therefore, this option is incorrect and it gets eliminated.
Moving to option B which is the Hemp plant. Hemp plant is the correct answer as all the three charas, ganja and bhang are obtained from cannabis and it is another name for hemp plant. Therefore, this option is the correct one.
Moving to option C which is Cocoa plant, it is an incorrect answer as these narcotic drugs are not obtained from cocoa plant but it is obtained from hemp plant and therefore this option gets eliminated.
Last option is D which is Coffee. It is also incorrect as narcotic drugs are not obtained from coffee. These are prepared from cannabis or hemp plants. Therefore it also gets eliminated.

Thus, the correct answer is option B which is Hemp plant.

Note: These are cannabinoids and these cannabinoids are obtained from cannabis sativa and its common name is hemp plant. These narcotic drugs are obtained from different parts of cannabis sativa. Some of the narcotic drugs have medical use. Since Cannabis is the common name of hemp plant and therefore from all the above options, option B hemp is the correct one.
