Which is NOT a part of an anchor?

A Palm
B Bill
C Devil's claw
D Crown
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) Devil's claw. The devil's claw is not a part of an anchor. An anchor typically consists of the following main components: the crown, the shank, the stock, the arms, and the flukes (also known as the palm and bill). The devil's claw is a type of anchor design that is not part of the standard anchor structure. The other answer choices - the palm, bill, and crown - are all legitimate parts of a typical anchor, which is why they are incorrect answers.
