Solution
The correct option is
A
Flapping
Birds show two types of flight:
Gliding and Flapping.
Gliding: During gliding the bird has its wings and tail spread out. In this movement the bird uses air currents for going up and down.
Flapping: This is an active flight. The bird beats the air by flapping its wings. They use flight feathers for this purpose.
