Which term refers to a mature male horse?

Explanation:
A stallion is a mature, uncastrated male horse kept for breeding. Understanding horse age/sex terms helps: a foal is a young horse under one year; a colt is a young male under four years; a mare is an adult female. Since the question asks for a mature male, stallion is the correct term. If the horse were castrated, the term would be gelding, but that isn’t the case here.
