Which sentence correctly uses no article before a general plural noun?
AA dogs are loyal animals.
BAn dogs are loyal animals.
CDogs are loyal animals.
DThe dogs are loyal animals.
Explanation
When making a general statement about an entire category or class of things using a plural noun, no article is needed at all, as in ‘Dogs are loyal animals,’ meaning dogs in general. Adding ‘the’ before ‘dogs’ would instead incorrectly suggest a specific, particular group of dogs already known to the listener, rather than dogs as a general category.
