You got this from one of those online IQ tests. I've seen it before. I always get this one right since I check my IQ daily.

Re: See if Sklansky can get this brainteaser
Almonds are totally different.
People who are allergic to "tree nuts" ie (walnut, hazelnut, etc) and those who are allergic to Peanuts can often (but not always) eat almonds which although aften classified as a "tree nut" may truly be a "pit". Although cashews are the one that are similar to poison ivy. But I contend the one most unlike the others in the list is almond. I incidentally am allergic to "tree nuts" and to peanuts but can eat almonds fine. X |

Poison Ivy is part of the cashew family. Urushiol is the rash-causing oil in the ivy and in the cashew nut shell.

[ QUOTE ]
Cashew is correct but the reasoning is not. No special knowledge is required get the answer. Any child who is familiar with all of them can give the correct reason. [/ QUOTE ] The only distinguishing characteristic that I estimate a child would recognize is the fact that a cashew is curved. How in the world this could have anything to do with poison ivy, I do not know. |
