Answer:
The sentence that is correct is:
3. Geese fly south in the winter to escape the bitter cold.
Explanation:
This question is about the plural form of some nouns. In number 1, the plural of "fish" is written as "fishes". Even though this plural does exist, this should not be chosen as the correct option. The plural form "fish" is more commonly used and, since the question wants only one option to be correct, we should choose a more correct one, so to speak.
In number 2, the plural "mices" is incorrect. There should be no -s at the noun's ending. "Mice" is the correct plural of "mouse".
Number 3 is the correct option. The irregular plural form "geese" is used for the noun "goose".
Finally, in number 4, the plural form "turkies" is spelled incorrectly. The right spelling is "turkeys" - there is no need to drop the -y and add -ies. The noun "pheasant" is not even in its plural form, which would be "pheasants".
