Answer:

a) public class Bear  extends Animal{ ... }

public class Zoo {  private Animal[] myAnimals;

... }

Explanation:

The question is an illustration of inheritance in Java programming language.

The syntax to follow is:

class subclass extends superclass {...}

From the question:

Bear [tex]\to[/tex] subclass

Animal [tex]\to[/tex] superclass

So, the following declaration will be used:

class Bear  extends Animal{ ... }

Also from the question, the zoo object represents collection of many animals.

So, its declaration will follow:

class class-name{ ..... }

i.e.

class zoo{ .... }

The ... can then be replaced with declaration of each animal or an array to represent the declarations..

Hence, (e) is correct

The most appropriate set of declarations is; Option E

What is the best programming pattern?

From the parameters given in the question, we can say that;

Bear is a subclass

Animal is a superclass

This means that the declaration that will be used is;

public class Bear  extends Animal{ ... }

Now, we also see that Zoo are declared to represent animal, bear and zoo objects. Thus, the declaration would be;

public class Zoo

{

private Animal[] myAnimals;

...

}

Looking at the given options, only option E is correct.
