- A.
  
  A cow
- B.

  An ox
- D.
  
  A crow
Correct Answer
C. An ox

Explanation
An ox is the correct answer because it refers to a male cow that has been trained and used for work, such as plowing fields or pulling carts. The term "ox" specifically denotes a castrated adult male bovine, while "cow" is a more general term that can refer to both males and females. "Foal" refers to a young horse, and "crow" is a type of bird, so they are not the correct terms for a male cow.

The Sun is a star because it is a massive ball of hot, glowing gases that produces its own light and energy through nuclear fusion. It is the closest star to Earth and is the center of our solar system. Ceres, Pluto, and 243 Ida are all celestial bodies, but they are not stars.
