AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) Pisces. Fomalhaut is a bright star located in the constellation of Pisces, the Fish. This is a well-known fact in astronomy and navigation, as Fomalhaut is one of the four "royal stars" that are often used as navigational aids. The other answer choices are incorrect because Leo, Taurus, and Canis Major are different constellations that do not contain the star Fomalhaut.
