  • 2. 

    Birds fly in the sky.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Birds are known for their ability to fly, which is a characteristic that sets them apart from many other animals. They have wings that allow them to soar through the sky, using the air currents to navigate and travel long distances. This ability to fly is an essential part of their survival, as it helps them find food, escape from predators, and migrate to different locations. Therefore, it is true that birds fly in the sky.

    Rate this question:

    Fish swim in the ________ .

    • Jungle

    • Sky

    • River

    Correct Answer
    A. River
    Explanation
    Fish swim in the river. This is because rivers provide a suitable habitat for fish to live and swim in. Rivers typically have flowing water, which is essential for fish to breathe and obtain oxygen. They also provide food sources such as insects, plants, and other small organisms that fish feed on. Additionally, rivers offer protection and shelter for fish from predators. Therefore, fish are commonly found swimming in rivers.

    • Scales

    • Wings

    • Fins

    • Feathers

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Wings
    A. Feathers
    Explanation
    Parrots have a beak, wings, and feathers. Wings allow parrots to fly, which is a characteristic feature of these birds. Feathers provide insulation, help with flight, and display vibrant colors for mating displays and camouflage. Both wings and feathers are essential for parrots' survival and adaptation to their environment.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    Sharks are birds.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Sharks are not birds. Sharks are a type of fish, while birds belong to the class Aves. They have different anatomical features, habitats, and behaviors. Sharks have gills to breathe underwater, while birds have lungs for breathing air. Sharks have fins and a streamlined body for swimming, while birds have wings for flying. Therefore, the statement "Sharks are birds" is false.

    Rate this question:

    Kangaroos have fur, a tail, and a _________ . - ProProfs

    Kangaroos have fur, a tail, and a _________ .

    • Scales

    • Pouch

    • Fins

    Correct Answer
    A. Pouch
    Explanation
    Kangaroos have fur and a tail, which are physical characteristics commonly associated with mammals. However, what sets kangaroos apart is their unique pouch, which is a specialized feature found in marsupials. The pouch is used by female kangaroos to carry and nurse their young, providing a safe and protected environment for their development. This adaptation is essential for the survival and reproductive success of kangaroos, making the option "pouch" the correct answer.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    Parrots live in the _______ .

    • Ocean

    • Forest

    • Cave

    Correct Answer
    A. Forest
    Explanation
    Parrots are known to live in forests. This is because forests provide a suitable habitat for parrots, with an abundance of trees for them to perch on, ample food sources such as fruits and seeds, and a diverse ecosystem that supports their survival. Forests also offer protection and camouflage for parrots, allowing them to blend in with their surroundings and avoid predators. Therefore, it is logical to conclude that parrots live in forests.

    Rate this question:

    Kangaroos live in the _______ .

    • River

    • Sky

    • Jungle

    Correct Answer
    A. Jungle
    Explanation
    Kangaroos live in the jungle. This is because kangaroos are native to Australia, and Australia is known for its diverse range of habitats, including jungles. Kangaroos are adapted to living in these dense, wooded areas, where they can find shelter, food, and water sources. They have strong hind legs for hopping through the jungle and long tails for balance. Additionally, the jungle provides plenty of vegetation for kangaroos to graze on, making it an ideal habitat for them.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    Fish have wings.
