Question

Bird : Nest :: Bee : _________

• A. Kennel
• B. Hammock
• C. Hive
• D. Lair

Hint:

Remember common animal homes: Bird → Nest, Bee → Hive, Dog → Kennel, Lion → Lair.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Understanding the type of analogy.
This is a habitat-based analogy. The relationship compares an animal with its natural home.
Step 2: Analyzing the first pair.
A bird lives in a nest. Therefore, the relationship is: \[ \text{Animal} \rightarrow \text{Its dwelling place}. \] So we must find the correct dwelling place of a bee.
Step 3: Evaluating the options.
(A) Kennel: This is the home of a dog, not a bee.
(B) Hammock: This is a hanging bed, not an animal dwelling.
(C) Hive: This is the natural home of bees — correct match.
(D) Lair: This is the home of wild animals like lions or tigers, not bees.
Step 4: Conclusion.
Since a bird lives in a nest, similarly a bee lives in a hive. Hence, the correct answer is (C).
