Which is a correct description?
- A.
  
  This object is a rectangle
- B.
  
  This object is a square
- C.
  
  This object is a cube
- D.
  
  This object is made of leather
Correct Answer
C. This object is a cube

Explanation
The correct answer is "This object is a cube" because a cube is a three-dimensional shape with six equal square faces. The other options do not accurately describe the object based on the given information. A rectangle has four sides, but it does not specify if all sides are equal. A square has four equal sides, but it does not specify if it is three-dimensional. The statement "This object is made of leather" provides information about the material of the object, but it does not describe its shape.

Correct Answer
A. This object is a circle

Explanation
The correct answer is "This object is a circle" because a circle is a two-dimensional shape that is perfectly round and has no edges or corners. It is a closed curve where all points on the curve are equidistant from the center. In contrast, a sphere is a three-dimensional object that is perfectly round in shape, and medium-weight and being made of plastic are not relevant descriptions for determining the shape of the object.
