Question

Each pair of capitalized words given is followed by four pair of words. Select the pair that DOES NOT expresses a relationship similar to that expressed by the capitalized pair. KERNAL : SHELL

• A. Caterpillar : Pupa
• B. Larva : Cacoon
• C. Lassitude : Syncope
• D. Passenger : Car

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The relationship between "KERNEL : SHELL" is that a kernel is a part inside a shell; the shell encases or surrounds the kernel. Now, let's evaluate each pair to identify which does not fit this relationship:

1. Caterpillar : Pupa - A caterpillar changes into a pupa. This is a transformation and does not match the insider-surrounding relationship.
2. Larva : Cacoon - A larva spins a cocoon around itself; the cocoon surrounds the larva. This resembles the kernel-shell relationship.
3. Lassitude : Syncope - Lassitude can lead to syncope (fainting); however, this is not a physical inside-surrounding relationship like kernel and shell. Still, it's a form of progression.
4. Passenger : Car - A passenger is inside a car, fitting the inside-surrounding paradigm. This aligns more closely with the kernel-shell relationship but also adds functionality.

The relationship pair that does not fit the insider-outsider pattern is "Caterpillar : Pupa" because this is a progression rather than a spatial encapsulation.
