The answer is D. Carbohydrates.
Pasta is made of from flour and flour is the product from grinding whole grains into powder and is rich in carbohydrates.
Carbohydrate is a simple sugar that provides plenty of energy in order for the body to function well. Pasta is not a major source of protein but perhaps marginal. Pasta may also contain amounts of fats and calcium but it is clearly not within the definition of ‘rich’. Using our sense of taste, we can accurately distinct foods that are rich in protein and we can describe it as meaty. Food by products that are rich in fat like butter or foods rich in carbohydrates in which we can taste sweetness.
