Study the following statements :

(A) The baby pelicans pick their food from their parents' pouches.
(B) The fish are kept in the pouches and eaten when the pelican feel hungry.

  • A.Both (A) and (B) are right.
  • B.Both (A) and (B) are wrong.
  • C.(A) is right and (B) is wrong.
  • D.(B) is right and (A) is wrong.

Answer: B

Both (A) and (B) are wrong.

(A) is wrong because young pelicans feed by 'sticking their bills into their parents' throats to retrieve food'; they do not pick food from the parents' pouches.

(B) is wrong because the passage says 'Pelicans do not store fish in their pouch'. They use the pouch to catch fish, tip it to drain out the water and swallow the fish at once.

With both statements false, the options that call either one right are out.
