Which of the following is ponderous?
-
A mouse
-
A planet
-
A bulldozer
-
A hippopotamus
Correct Answer
A. A hippopotamusExplanation
A hippopotamus is considered ponderous because it is a large and heavy animal. It can weigh up to several tons and has a bulky body structure. This makes it slow and cumbersome in its movements, adding to its ponderous nature. In contrast, a mouse is small and light, a planet is massive but not physically ponderous, and a bulldozer may be heavy but it is a man-made object and not inherently ponderous like a hippopotamus.Rate this question:
