- B Women
- C Humans
- D None of these
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The missing word in the given phrase is "men". This phrase is a quote from the poem "To a Mouse" by Robert Burns. The phrase means that even the most carefully made plans of mice and men often go wrong or do not turn out as intended. The word "men" is used here to represent human beings in general, emphasizing that no matter how well we plan, things can still go awry.
