Question

Explanation:

To determine which food is rich in vitamin C, we analyze each option:

• Oatmeal: It is a source of carbohydrates and fiber, not a significant source of vitamin C.
• Lean chicken: It is rich in protein, not vitamin C.
• Tomatoes: They are known to be a good source of vitamin C.
