341. Choose analogous pair: Banyan tree : Proproots
- A. Potato : Tuber
- B. Climbers : Tendrils
- C. Ginger : Stem
- D. Spinach : Root
Explanation: A banyan tree develops prop roots, while climbing plants commonly use tendrils for support. A tuber is a modified part of a potato, but it is not the same kind of characteristic structure.
Correct answer: Climbers : Tendrils342. Choose analogous pair: Bridge : Cards
- A. Dam : River
- B. Gamble : Money
- C. Image : Mirror
- D. Fencing : Sword
Explanation: Bridge is a card game played with cards, while fencing is a sport practised with a sword. The other pairs show places, materials, or objects without this game-and-equipment relationship.
Correct answer: Fencing : Sword343. Choose analogous pair: Yen : Currency
- A. Brass : Metal
- B. Flower : Fragrance
- C. Paper : Book
- D. Karnataka : State
Explanation: The yen is an example of a currency, and Karnataka is an example of a state. Brass is a type of metal, but the order and relationship do not match as precisely.
Correct answer: Karnataka : State344. Choose analogous pair: Sheep : Mutton
- A. Duck : Roast
- B. Hen : Poultry
- C. Deer : Venison
- D. Lamb : Veal
Explanation: Mutton is the meat obtained from sheep, while venison is meat obtained from deer. Roast is a method or dish of preparation, not the specific meat of a duck.
Correct answer: Deer : Venison345. Choose analogous pair: Eagle : Eyire
- A. Sheep : Pen
- B. Fox : Sty
- C. Lion : Hole
- D. Sheep : Coop
Explanation: An eyrie, misspelled here as “Eyire,” is the nest or dwelling of an eagle. A sheep is kept in a pen, whereas a sty belongs to pigs and a coop to poultry.
Correct answer: Sheep : Pen346. Choose analogous pair: Infection : Illness
- A. Satisfaction : Appetite
- B. Applause : Audience
- C. Antidote : Disease
- D. Rehearsal : Performance
Explanation: An infection can lead to illness, just as rehearsal prepares for and leads to a performance. An antidote counteracts a disease, so that pair expresses treatment rather than cause or preparation.
Correct answer: Rehearsal : Performance347. Choose analogous pair: State : Exile
- A. Church : Excommunicate
- B. Constitution : Amendment
- C. Judge : Convict
- D. Police : Arrest
Explanation: A state may exile a person, while a church may excommunicate a person, both describing official exclusion. Amendment changes a constitution, and arrest or conviction does not match the specific exclusion relationship as closely.
Correct answer: Church : Excommunicate348. Choose analogous pair: Ass : Bray
- A. Sheep : Bleat
- B. Fox : Snout
- C. Hen : Mew
- D. Flies : Squeak
Explanation: To bray is the characteristic sound of an ass, while to bleat is the characteristic sound of a sheep. A hen clucks rather than mews, and flies do not squeak.
Correct answer: Sheep : Bleat349. Choose analogous pair: Flag : Nation
- A. Emblem : Prosperity
- B. Insignia : Rank
- C. Wealth : Prestige
- D. Honor : Status
Explanation: A flag represents or identifies a nation, just as an insignia represents or identifies a person's rank. Wealth and honour may indicate status, but they are not identifying symbols in the same way.
Correct answer: Insignia : Rank350. Choose analogous pair: Donkey : Trot
- A. Monkey : Waddle
- B. Cat : Leap
- C. Eagle : Stride
- D. Mouse : Scamper
Explanation: A donkey moves at a trot, while a mouse moves by scampering. Waddling is associated with animals such as ducks, and stride is not the characteristic movement of an eagle.
Correct answer: Mouse : Scamper
