    Which of these animals wouldn't burrow?

    • A.

      A mole

    • B.

      A gopher

    • C.

      A pigeon

    Correct Answer
    C. A pigeon
    Explanation
    A pigeon wouldn't burrow because it is a bird and birds do not typically burrow. While moles and gophers are known for their burrowing behavior, pigeons are not adapted for digging or creating underground tunnels. Pigeons typically build nests in trees, on ledges, or in man-made structures like buildings and bridges. They prefer open spaces and do not have the physical adaptations or instincts for burrowing like moles and gophers do.

Prompt medical attention and rewarming methods are essential in treating hypothermia.

    The word "hypothermiaed" is not used correctly in the sentence. "Hypothermia" is a noun that refers to a medical condition caused by exposure to extremely cold temperatures.

Therefore, the answer "True" aligns with the idea that high school girls often have protean hearts regarding their choice of boys.
