answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
True. By definition, a Prime number is divisible by one and by itself. Also by definition, a perfect square has at least an additional pair of factors - it's Square root. Therefore a prime number could never be a perfect square.
One exception that might come to mind in this case is the number one. One however, is not considered a prime number, and thus does not conflict with this rule.
