Question

which answer best describes the meaning of devour?
the vultures had not seen food for days and swooped down to devour the carcass.

chew up

taste carefully

nibble on

eat quickly

Explanation:

The vultures had not eaten for days. So they would eat the carcass quickly. "Devour" means to eat greedily or quickly. "Chew up" just means to chew; "taste carefully" is the opposite of what hungry vultures would do; "nibble on" implies small, slow bites.

Answer:

eat quickly
