Correct Answer
B. Leopard AppaloosaExplanation
The correct answer is Leopard Appaloosa. This is because a Leopard Appaloosa is a specific breed of horse that has a spotted coat pattern, typically with a white base color and dark spots. It is different from a regular spotted horse or a polka-dotted horse, as those terms are more general and can refer to any horse with spots or dots on its coat. A flea-bitten grey horse has a coat color that appears grey with small specks or spots, while a white horse would have a completely white coat without any spots or patterns.Rate this question:
