Question

Fish : Shoal :: Lion : ............ Select the correct option to complete the analogy.

• A. Pride
• B. School
• C. Forest
• D. Series

Hint:

Collective nouns are special terms used to describe groups of animals, people, or objects. For example: a "flock of birds," a "herd of elephants," a "gaggle of geese," and a "pride of lions."

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Understand the relationship.
The term "Shoal" refers to a collective noun used for a group of fish. Therefore, the analogy is asking us to find the correct collective noun for a group of lions.
Step 2: Examine options. \begin{itemize} \item (A) Pride: The correct collective noun for a group of lions is a "pride of lions." \item (B) School: This is used for a group of fish or dolphins, not lions. \item (C) Forest: Refers to a place where animals live, not a collective noun. \item (D) Series: This refers to a sequence or order, not an animal group. \end{itemize} Step 3: Conclude.
Thus, just as "Shoal" is the correct collective noun for fish, "Pride" is the correct collective noun for lions.
Final Answer:
\[ \boxed{\text{Pride}} \]
