Hairy palms

Correct Answer
A. AcneExplanation
Acne is not a sign that someone might be a werewolf because it is a common skin condition that affects many people, regardless of whether they are werewolves or not. Werewolves, on the other hand, are typically associated with characteristics such as hairy palms, a unibrow, and curved fingernails, which are not commonly found in non-werewolf individuals. Therefore, the presence of acne alone does not indicate that someone is a werewolf.Rate this question:
