Select the correct statements about elephants from the following :
A. A three-month-old baby elephant generally weighs about 100 kg.
B. An adult elephant can eat more than 200 kg of leaves and twigs in one day.
C. Elephants do not rest very much; they sleep for only two to four hours in a day.
D. Elephants like to play with mud and water.
Answer: D
The correct statements are C and D.
The NCERT Class 4 EVS chapter 'A Day with Nandu' says that elephants do not rest very much and sleep for only two to four hours in a day, which is statement C, and that elephants love to play with mud and water, which is statement D.
A is wrong because the chapter gives a three-month-old baby elephant, Nandu, as weighing 200 kilograms, not 100. B is not the chapter's figure either: it says an adult elephant can eat more than 100 kilograms of leaves and twigs in one day, so the 200 kg of the statement is not supported. Every option other than 'C and D' includes A or B.
