From my understanding of acronym's, they are abbreviations that form words. My guess would be MADD, Mother Against Drink Drivers.

Another example:

NAYTO- from North Atlantic Treaty Organization

thx but am i correct?

laura am i correct

yea u r kerry

Yes, FCC is an acronym.

But MADD and NBA are also acronyms.

Are you sure the question doesn't ask which is NOT an acronym?

Yes, you are correct. The acronym in the list is B) FCC, which stands for Federal Communications Commission.

An acronym is a word formed from the initial letters or parts of a series of words, pronounced as a single word. To determine if a word is an acronym, you need to know what each letter stands for and if it is pronounced as a single word.

In this case, the letters "FCC" represent "Federal Communications Commission," and it is pronounced as a single word rather than spelling out each letter.
