Question

b)Apiary
c)Armoury
d)Aviary

Answer 1

Hint: Birds come under vertebrates of the animal kingdom (animal classification) and are called ‘Aves’.

Complete step-by-step answer:

Option a “zoo” is a place where wild animals are kept, typically in a park or garden, for study, conservation, or public display. Thus, option ‘a’ is incorrect.

Option b “apiary” is a place where a colony or several colonies of bees are kept for the purpose of collecting honey and beeswax. Thus, option ‘b’ is the correct answer.

Option c “armoury” is a place where weapons are kept. So, this is also incorrect.

Option d “aviary” is a place where birds are kept, such as a building at the zoo or a bird sanctuary. Thus, option ‘d’ is the correct answer.


Note: An aviary can be separate like a bird sanctuary or even within a zoo.
