Model Answer

(d) United States of America

Cargill Foods is an MNC that belongs to the United States of America.

Explanation

This is a factual recall question. Cargill is a well-known American MNC mentioned in the context of Chapter 4 (Globalisation and the Indian Economy). The key point to remember is that MNCs like Cargill, though operating widely in India, are headquartered in and belong to other countries — in this case, the USA.
