Question

Marietta Cotiangco · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : C, Explanation :  Ralph has developed prototypes for rats and mice, which means he has a general idea or image of what each animal is like, even if he cannot list specific differences between them. Morphemes and phonemes refer to the smallest units of language, and confused concepts would mean Ralph cannot differentiate between the two animals at all.
