Question

In a 2005 study comparing the ability of different animals tounderstand and respond to human communication, Miklos et al. pointed to hidden food in four different ways to signal both cats and dogs where they could find the treat they desired. Results indicated no significant difference in the ability of cats and dogs to locate the hidden food based on the nonverbal communication provided by the humans. Findings suggest that cats and dogs may have similar levels of cognitive abilities in terms of understanding and responding to cues from humans. Which finding, if true, would most directly support the researchers' conclusions? Elimination Tool Select one answer A Cats are studied less than dogs because cats have a tendency to "drop out"of studies due to lack of interest in working with researchers or refusal to cooperate. B Animal behaviorists suggest that catowners can identify their cat's level of inde independence by vignoring their cat for a few minutes to see if the cat seeks out attention. C Manycat owners report that their pets know and respond to their name b being called and even change behaviors in response to other verbal commands While reaction to food is most frequently used in research with pets like cats, newer research involves determining how cats respond to the presence of other animals such as dogs
