Question

which generalization can be made based on the passage? 1 elephant responses to different objects indicate a human - like emotional connection to other elephants. 2 all animals have emotional responses to the deaths of others of their species. 3 elephants respond to the remains of other elephants in an apparently emotional fashion.

Explanation:

1. The first option is too specific about "human - like emotional connection to other elephants" based on responses to different objects without clear passage - based evidence.
2. The second option is an over - generalization as it claims "all animals" have emotional responses to the deaths of others of their species, which is likely not supported by a single passage about elephants.
3. The third option is a more reasonable generalization as it simply states that elephants respond emotionally to the remains of other elephants, which is a more likely conclusion from a passage about elephant behavior.

Answer:

1. Elephants respond to the remains of other elephants in an apparently emotional fashion.
