Analogy Reasoning: Fish and Lion Groups
This question asks to complete an analogy based on the relationship between an animal and its group name (collective noun).
Understanding the Relationship
The first pair, "Fish : Shoal", establishes the pattern. A 'shoal' is the term used for a group of 'fish'.
Applying the Pattern
We need to find the correct collective noun for a 'Lion', similar to how 'shoal' is the collective noun for 'fish'.
Analyzing the Options
- Option 1: Pride - A group of lions is commonly called a 'pride'. This fits the established pattern.
- Option 2: School - 'School' is also a collective noun for fish, but not for lions.
- Option 3: Forest - A 'forest' is a habitat, not a group of animals.
- Option 4: Series - 'Series' refers to a sequence or set, not a group of lions.
Conclusion
The correct collective noun for lions is 'pride'. Therefore, the analogy is completed as Fish : Shoal :: Lion : Pride.
Correct Option: A (Pride)
