Solution
The correct option is A Lioness
The answer to the given sentence is Option A, Lioness.
As per the question, the sentence would have the male gender
noun to be replaced by the feminine noun, without dropping the vowel, and then
adding the syllable ‘-ess’. Here in the sentence, the male gender noun, ‘Lion’
has to be kept as it is, while adding the syllable. Thus, the meaningful counterpart
that we get is ‘Lioness’, which means the female version of the Lion from the
cat family. While Option B, Cheetah is a common gender noun, option C, tigress,
is a feminine gender noun which is the counterpart of Tiger.
Thus, Option A, Lioness, is the correct answer.
