Which of the following is the same as 'Sty', 'Stable', 'Kennel' — i.e., another animal dwelling/shelter term that matches the category.

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: Burrow

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
'Sty' (pig), 'stable' (horse), and 'kennel' (dog) are names of animal shelters/dwellings. The question asks you to choose another dwelling term from the options that fits this category.



Given Data / Assumptions:

  • We are matching the semantic class 'animal dwelling/shelter'.
  • Options contain animals and places; only one is a dwelling term.
  • The selected term should be commonly accepted in GK lists.


Concept / Approach:
'Burrow' is a shelter/dwelling (typically for rabbits, foxes, and other burrowing animals). 'Whale' and 'horse' are animals; 'room' is a human interior space. Hence, 'Burrow' alone preserves the category of animal dwellings.



Step-by-Step Solution:
1) Determine the class: animal shelters/dwellings.2) Evaluate options: pick the dwelling term.3) 'Burrow' matches; others do not.



Verification / Alternative check:
Common lists: cattle–byre, dog–kennel, horse–stable, pig–sty, rabbit/fox–burrow, bee–hive, etc.



Why Other Options Are Wrong:

  • Whale/Horse: Animals, not shelters.
  • Room: Human dwelling subspace; not an animal shelter term.
  • None of these: Incorrect because 'Burrow' fits.


Common Pitfalls:
Selecting an animal associated with one of the dwellings rather than another dwelling term.



Final Answer:
Burrow
