The correct Answer is:
To determine which animals from the list breathe through gills, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Animals**: We have the following animals to consider: Fish, Grasshopper, Cockroach, Earthworm, Frog, Cow, Goat, Man, Lizard, Snake. 2. **Understand Gills**: Gills are specialized organs used for breathing in aquatic organisms. They extract oxygen from water. 3. **Analyze Each Animal**: - **Fish**: Fish are aquatic animals and they breathe through gills. **(Yes, they breathe through gills)** - **Grasshopper**: Grasshoppers are primarily terrestrial insects, but they have a unique respiratory system that includes structures called gills in some species. However, they do not primarily breathe through gills like fish do. **(No, they do not primarily breathe through gills)** - **Cockroach**: Cockroaches breathe through spiracles and do not have gills. **(No, they do not breathe through gills)** - **Earthworm**: Earthworms breathe through their skin, not gills. **(No, they do not breathe through gills)** - **Frog**: Frogs can breathe through both lungs and their skin, but they do not have gills in their adult form. **(No, they do not breathe through gills)** - **Cow**: Cows breathe through lungs. **(No, they do not breathe through gills)** - **Goat**: Goats also breathe through lungs. **(No, they do not breathe through gills)** - **Man**: Humans breathe through lungs. **(No, they do not breathe through gills)** - **Lizard**: Lizards breathe through lungs. **(No, they do not breathe through gills)** - **Snake**: Snakes also breathe through lungs. **(No, they do not breathe through gills)** 4. **Conclusion**: The only animal from the list that breathes through gills is the **Fish**. The Grasshopper does not primarily breathe through gills, so it is not included. ### Final Answer: **Fish** is the only animal from the list that breathes through gills. ---
