Explanation:

- Any female animal which feeds its young on milk from her own body is referred to as a mammal. These animals are characterized by the presence of mammary glands, which produce milk to nourish their offspring.

- Option 1: Vertebrate refers to animals that have a backbone or spinal column. This group includes mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish, but not all vertebrates feed their young with milk.

- Option 2: Parasite is an organism that lives on or in a host and gets its food from or at the expense of its host. Parasites are not related to nurturing offspring with milk.

- Option 3: Mammal is the correct choice as it describes animals that produce milk to nurse their young.

- Option 4: Fauna generally refers to all the animal life of a particular region, habitat, or time. It does not specifically relate to feeding young with milk.
