The passage given below is followed by four alternate summaries. Choose the option that best captures the essence of the passage.
Scientific research shows that many animals are very intelligent and have sensory and motor abilities that dwarf ours. Dogs are able to detect diseases such as cancer and diabetes and warn humans of impending heart attacks and strokes. Elephants, whales, hippopotamuses, giraffes, and alligators use low-frequency sounds to communicate over long distances, often miles. Many animals also display wide-ranging emotions, including joy, happiness, empathy, compassion, grief, and even resentment and embarrassment. It's not surprising that animals share many emotions with us because we also share brain structures, located in the limbic system, that are the seat of our emotions.
- Animals are more intelligent than us in sensing danger and detecting diseases.
- The advanced sensory and motor abilities of animals is the reason why they can display wide-ranging emotions.
- Animals can show emotions which are typically associated with humans.
- The similarity in brain structure explains why animals show emotions typically associated with humans.
