Answer: incomplete proteins.

Explanation: For instance, beans, lentils, peas, and many vegetables tend to contain low amounts of cysteine and methionine. On the other hand, grains, nuts, and seeds tend to be low in lysine. Because of this, many people refer to plant foods as “incomplete” sources of protein.
