Afork and blade
Bmale and female
Chook and nail
Dleft hand and right hand
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) fork and blade. The connecting rods in a diesel engine are distinctively named "fork and blade" due to their unique shape and design. The fork end of the connecting rod attaches to the crankshaft, while the blade end connects to the piston. This distinctive configuration allows the engine to efficiently transfer the power generated by the combustion process to the crankshaft, enabling the engine to operate. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the specific naming convention for diesel engine connecting rods, which is the "fork and blade" design.
