Technically the bareback question is incorrect. Riding bareback means you aren't using a saddle. Many people who ride bareback will still use a bridle, which is still part of the tack set. Riding without tack (a saddle and a bridle) is simply called riding tackless, not bareback.
Not a bad quiz, but I think your wording needs work on some of these questions.
The term "yearling" among horses, is not an animal the age of which is between one and two years. A "yearling" is a horse, that has seen its first (but not its second) January 1st. Technically, a foal born on December 31st is a "yearling" the very next day.
What I mean DKChappell is that a white horse is in fact a white horse, it has unpigmented skin and white hair with light eyes, what is commonly mistaken as a white horse is a grey horse, which has black skin with dark eyes, so yes in fact, a white horse is white and a grey horse is grey.
Correct. There are indeed true white horses that are albinos. They have red eyes. Very light grey horses are still grey horses, despite being white in color. They are distinguished from white horses due to their very dark grey skin. Often they are born darker and lighten as they get older.
You want "lead rope," but neither lead nor rope work as an answer. Most people who care for horses would call it a lead, not a lead rope. Most leads are not ropes at all.
Most of the questions are incorrect/poorly worded, but an example would be "what is a white horse" - there is no such thing as a white horse, that coat colour doesn't exist in horses, and this question is also misleading due to the fact that there are several different mutations/gene expressions/etc. that cause a horse to appear 'white'. Max white, max sabino, grey, and so on make a horse LOOK 'white', but all are caused by different things. The "colour" misconstrued most commonly as white is what's called max white, which is a mutation of a pinto pattern where the horse ends up as one giant white spot. Max sabino is similar. Albinism ('albino') does not exist in horses.
Grey horses aren't even caused by a coat colour themselves, grey is actually a depigmentation disease where the melanin is progressively broken down. All grey horses start out as a different base colour. Grey is a condition that is passed down by the dominant grey gene.
