Answer 1

the answer is B! all animals are able to eat and move and have more than one cell, not all animals can fly or walk on all fours!

Answer 2

B) ability to move and eat, and are multi-cellular.

Step-by-step explanation:

All animals can move, eat and are multi-cellular, because they are formed with a complex biological system, all these are general characteristics of beings inside the animal kingdom.

On the other hand, other options cannot be generalise, because not all animals can fly, or are single-celled, not all animals can stand on four legs, there are plenty two legs animals. So, basically, the only option that can be generalise in this context is option B.
