• The Nazca lines of Peru are famous for the
  mystery of their creation. No one is sure how
  the native population drew them. You have
  discovered so new ones that have never been seen
  before. They appear to be similar in shape to
  some modern English words. Which of the
  following words does not have rotational symmety?

• SOS
• NOON
• SWIMS
• MOM
• Answer

Social Studies- Answer

• Correct answer D (MOM)
• All of the other words show 180 degree rotational
  symmetry. 180 degrees is the equivalent of
  looking at the words upside down. Try it, all of
  them make the same word when you look at it
  upside down except for MOM which turns in to WOW!
