Answer: Option A

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Leghorn is Mediterranean class.
The Leghorn is a breed of chicken originating in Tuscany, in central Italy. Birds were first exported to North America in 1828 from the Tuscan port city of Livorno, on the western coast of Italy. They were initially called "Italians", but by 1865 the breed was known as "Leghorn", the traditional anglicisation of "Livorno".
Leghorns are good layers of white eggs, laying an average of 280 per year and sometimes reaching 300 - 320, with a weight of at least 55 g.
