Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An interest group is an organization that seeks to influence public policy on specific issues or areas of interest. In this case, the organization focuses on animal protection through political action. The other choices, such as political parties and women's groups, do not specifically describe the nature or purpose of this kind of organization. Political action committees (PACs) are a type of interest group that raise and spend money to influence political campaigns, but they may not necessarily focus on animal protection or welfare.
