Solution

The correct option is C Bat
Bats are mammals. They have mammary glands for the production of milk to nourish their young ones.
Other characteristics of mammals are:
  • Their skin has hair as well as sweat and oil glands.
  • They are warm-blooded
  • They have four-chambered hearts.
  • They give birth to young ones directly without laying eggs (except platypus).
The octopus is a mollusc. The crocodile is a reptile and the ostrich is a bird.
So, the correct answer is option B.
