Correct answer
Explanation
Rabbits are altricial animals, meaning they are born in a undeveloped state. Baby rabbits (kits) are born blind, deaf, and hairless. Their eyes typically open around 7-10 days after birth. This is a normal biological adaptation for burrowing prey animals that need minimal disturbance in the nest.
AI explanation
This statement is true, not false. Rabbits are altricial animals — kits are born blind, deaf, and hairless, fully dependent on their mother. Their eyes typically open around 10 to 14 days after birth, after which they gradually develop the wide, near-panoramic vision adult rabbits are known for.
