Let’s read the story carefully and think about what it says.
The story is called “Mammals” and tells us important facts about mammals.
First, it says:
- Mammals are animals found all over the world — on land or in the sea.
- Examples: dogs, cats, cows, monkeys, whales, and even people!
- All mammals have backbones (they’re vertebrates).
- Most have fur or hair (except some insects — but wait, that part might be tricky… actually, the text says “except for some insects,” which doesn’t make sense because insects aren’t mammals. Maybe it’s a typo? But we’ll go with what the text says.)
- Most have four legs and a tail. Some have two arms and two legs (like humans). Marine mammals like whales and dolphins have fins and a tail.
- ALL mammals feed their babies milk.
- Mammals are warm-blooded — they make their own heat from food.
Now, if this were a homework question, maybe it would ask something like:
“Which of these is NOT true about mammals?”
or
“What do all mammals have in common?”
But since no specific question was asked, I’ll assume the task is to understand and summarize the key points — or perhaps answer an implied question like: “What are three things all mammals have in common?”
Let me pick three clear, correct facts from the text that apply to ALL mammals:
1. They feed their babies milk. → The text says: “Mammals all feed their babies milk.” That’s definite.
2. They are warm-blooded. → Text: “Mammals are warm-blooded...”
3. They have backbones. → Text: “Mammals are vertebrates, so they have backbones.”
These three are stated as true for ALL mammals.
Other traits (like having fur, four legs, etc.) say “most” or “some,” so they don’t apply to every mammal.
So, if the homework question was: “Name three things that ALL mammals have in common,” then the answer would be those three.
Since there’s no actual question shown, but the user said “solve the problem accurately,” I’ll assume the goal is to extract the universal traits of mammals from the text.
Final check: Are these three really true for ALL mammals according to the text?
→ Feed babies milk? Yes — “Mammals all feed their babies milk.”
→ Warm-blooded? Yes — “Mammals are warm-blooded...”
→ Have backbones? Yes — “Mammals are vertebrates, so they have backbones.”
Perfect.
Final Answer:
All mammals feed their babies milk, are warm-blooded, and have backbones.
