Correct option is D)

  • Ruminants are herbivores animals as they completely depend on plants for their nutrition.
  • Their digestive systems can digest cellulose. Not many animals have the capability to digest cellulose.
  • Almost all animals are capable of locomotion hence it is not a characteristic of herbivores.

So the correct answer is 'Both A and B'.
