Answer 1

cargo means goods carried on a ship, aircraft, or motor vehicle.

Answer 2

Hello there :)

Your answer is Noun, number 2. a load. This is because a cargo is like a package or shipment being shipped off somewhere, For example, like how mail is sent to a post office and delivered to the address that is says on the piece of mail but a cargo is like a package type of shipment.


Hope this helps :)
