Question

Fill in the blank by choosing the correct option, to complete the sentence taken from a book about ‘Birds’.
Each year, thousands of birds .......... (migrate/immigrate/emigrate) southwards to avoid the harsh winter, embarking on an incredible journey that spans thousands of miles.

Hint:

Use “migrate” for seasonal movement of animals or birds; “immigrate” and “emigrate” are used for permanent human relocation.

Answer 1

The correct word is “migrate.” Birds travel seasonally from one region to another, and this process is called migration. “Immigrate” and “emigrate” refer to movement into or out of a country by humans, not animals in seasonal patterns.
