PLEASE ANSWER THIS QUESTION I"M STUCK I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT IF YOU DID! :)

Ever seen a moody teenage elephant? It turns out elephant adolescents share some behaviors with human teens. Cynthia Moss has found this to be the case after studying elephants in Kenya for nearly 50 years.

"They're naive, they have a lot to learn and they make mistakes," Moss said.

This is particularly true for male elephants, she explained. Males learn that if they raid crops, they get speared and then they die. "It's just like young human males who drive too fast," she said.

What connection does the author make between young male elephants and young male humans?

The author is trying to connect young male elephants with young male adults because both do something bad and learn from the bad experience.

i hope this helps in some way...

Explanation:

innocence can be defined as the lack of sin, relating it with the lack of guilt, also it can be a synonime of naivety. most people agree that sins are made out of experiences, intentionally or not, as well as you stop being naive once certain things happen to you throughout your life. so, with this explained, the chosen answers are:

when the boy saw the effects of war, he no longer viewed life as innocent.

the loss of innocence is a result of gaining experience and making mistakes.

one way to define innocence is as a lack of worldly experience or sophistication.

the answer is "began" because it is a action that can be done
