Explanation:

This story shows us the goatherd's greed. He wanted to attract new goats to his herd which is why he fed them abundantly at the expense of his own, old goats. His old goats got just enough food to survive, whether the wild goats were given loads of food. In the end, the wild goats escaped and his own goats didn't appreciate him anymore. The moral of the story is that you should treat everyone equally and not be biased towards one side more than the other. It is a good message for young children to follow.

The answer would be:  A.

either a donut or a sphere or a pancake or a flat sphere. it depends on where the vertical line is.

if the line goes through the center of the circle and is perpendicular to a diameter containing the center, then you get a flat circle.

if the line and the diameter of a the circle meet in the center of the diameter and at an angle, you get a pancake.

if the line is on the circumference of the circle and is at right angles   to the circle you get a ring.

if the line contains the diameter, you get a sphere.

the the line is parallel to the diameter and touches the circumference, you get a donut.
