Answer:

C. Cuckoo

Read Explanation:

Onomatopoeia refers to words that imitate natural sounds associated with the objects or actions they refer to.

🔹 "Cuckoo" is based on the sound made by the bird called a cuckoo.

It mimics the actual two-note call of the bird — making it a classic example of onomatopoeia.
