B Correct answer
Explanation

Kiwi refers to both a flightless bird native to New Zealand and a fuzzy brown fruit with green flesh. The kiwifruit was originally called "Chinese gooseberry" and was renamed "kiwi" in the 1960s due to its resemblance to the kiwi bird. Apricot, pears, and orange are fruits but do not have corresponding bird names.
