What is a symbol?

something that represents something else

something that proves something else

something that replaces something else

something that disproves something else

Answer 1

Correct answer: something that represents something else.

A symbol is a sign, object, word, or image that stands for or suggests an idea, concept, object, or relationship (e.g., a heart for love, a flag for a country, the letter "A" for a sound). The other choices (proves, replaces, disproves) are not the general meaning of a symbol.
