Google tests showing answers under ‘people also ask’ feature

Question Ask Faq Raise Hand Ss 1920

Google is now testing a new feature within the “people also ask” search results box.

Instead of just showing additional questions people might ask around a query you entered into the search results, Google is now testing showing a snippet of the answer directly below the question.

Sergey Alakov noticed it and posted this screen shot of it:

Google People Also Ask Normal

I personally cannot replicate this, but I am not surprised Google is testing it.
