Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Swimming.
The term “Dolphin Kick” is commonly used in swimming. It refers to a movement where both legs move up and down together in a wave-like motion, resembling the movement of a dolphin’s tail. This kick is mainly used in butterfly stroke and underwater phases of backstroke and freestyle starts or turns. Swimmers keep their legs together and generate propulsion from the hips, not the knees, to move efficiently through the water. The dolphin kick helps increase speed and maintain body streamline, making it one of the most powerful techniques in competitive swimming.
