Select the correct answer.
Read the adapted excerpt from "What Is an Aquarium?" by Shirley Hibberd.
The term vivarium applles to any collection of animals-to a park of deer, a rabbit warren, a menagerie, or even a traveling show containing
an asthmatic lion, a seedy cockatoo, and pair of snakes that are hourly stirred up with a long pole. For this reason, such a term could
nevet convey the very special Idea of a vessel contalning such specimens as form the stock of the aquarlum. When this was felt, the prefix
aqua was added to vivarium, to convey the Idea of the watery medium in which the specimens are immersed.
