WILL MARK BRAINLIEST Read this excerpt from "Are Dogs Dum?" by Karen Hopkin.

If you still believe that dogs are much smarter than chickens, it's probably because dogs are good at learning the things we want them to learn: fetching the newspaper, for example. Try to convince a chicken to do that! The truth is, most dog tricks take advantage of dogs' built-in behavior patterns—things that dogs are born knowing how to do or learn easily. Chasing and retrieving are leftover hunting behaviors. For a dog, fetching the paper or a tennis ball is not a reflection of intelligence. It's basically a demonstration that dogs will be dogs.

Which detail from the text best supports the inference that dogs are smart because they can do tricks?

"Chasing and retrieving are leftover hunting behaviors."

"…it's probably because dogs are good at learning the things we want them to learn: like fetching the newspaper, for example."

"The truth is, most dog tricks take advantage of dogs' built-in behavior patterns…"

"…things that dogs are born knowing how to do or learn easily."
