Which of the following describes a notable jumping ability of mice?

• A. Can jump 12+ inches to an elevated surface
• B. Cannot jump
• C. Can jump only 4 inches
• D. Can jump 2 feet

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is that mice can jump to reach elevated surfaces. Mice are capable of leaping about a foot or more, which means they can access countertops, tables, and shelves. Saying they can jump 12 inches or more captures this notable ability and aligns with what they are observed to do in real environments. The other options aren’t as accurate: claiming they cannot jump is incorrect, stating a 4-inch jump underestimates their actual capability, and although some mice might jump higher, 2 feet is not the typical or most representative measure of their jumping ability.
