Answer:

Water, plants, animals

Explanation:

The options you were given are the following:

  • thick shrubs, plants, trees
  • insects, pests, fire
  • seeds, fire, animals
  • water, plants, animals

When we're unsure about what a word means, the context it is used in is very important. It can help us partially or fully determine the meaning of a word.

Here, we have the word<em> undergrowth</em>, which refers to small trees, bushes, ferns, and other plants that grow beneath taller trees in a forest. Other words that can help us determine its meaning (called context clues) are <em>water</em>, <em>plants</em>, and <em>animals.</em><em> </em>Water, plants, and animals are all located on the forest floor, where the undergrowth can be found as well.
