Question

A leopard can't change its ____.

• A. dots
• B. stripes
• C. color
• D. none of the above

Hint:

Recall the exact full idiom first, then check which word from the options actually belongs in it.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Start by recalling the full idiom instead of scanning the options first: "A leopard cannot change its spots." It is used when someone claims to have changed but keeps acting the same old way.

Now check each word against "spots." Dots (A) sounds similar but is not the word used. Stripes (B) belongs to a different animal pattern altogether. Color (C) is too broad and not part of the fixed phrase. Since "spots" itself never appears among A, B or C, none of the given words complete the idiom correctly.

That leaves D, none of the above, as the answer, because the missing word "spots" was never listed as a choice.
