b. wolfes
c. wolves
d. wolfoes

Answer 1

Hint: Wolf is a noun which is used to refer to a wild carnivorous mammal, considered to be the largest member of the dog family. Their collective group is generally referred to as pack.

Complete answer:
Wolfs, wolfes and wolfoes aren’t dictionary words. They are just random created plural forms by adding -s or -es and hence don’t have any meaning to them. Thus wolfs, wolfes and wolfoes are to be marked out from the options and incorrect.
Wolves is the plural form of wolf. It is used to indicate more than one wolf at a time. The wolf is the most specialized member of genus Canis and is known for cooperative game hunting. In most of the words in English, which end with 'f', their plural form consists of 'ves'. The letter 'f' is dropped and replaced with 'ves' to create it’s plural form.

Examples:
1. Whenever wolves attack a herd, they always take the weakest animal.
2. We saw a pack of wolves at the edge of the jungle, hunting the deer.

Note: Plural form of words ending with 'f' don't end with -s or -es.
