A Correct answer
Explanation

A pannier is one of a pair of baskets, bags, or containers that are slung over the back of a donkey, mule, or horse to carry loads. Traditionally used for transporting goods, especially in mountainous or rural areas, panniers distribute weight evenly on both sides of the animal for balance and comfort. The word comes from the Old French 'panier' meaning bread basket.
