The question presents an analogy: Pink is related to Colour.

This means Pink is a specific instance or type belonging to the broader category of Colour.

Applying the Relationship to Eagle

We need to find the category to which an Eagle belongs, similar to how Pink belongs to Colour.

  • Pink ➝ Specific example of a Colour.
  • Eagle ➝ Specific example of what category?

Identifying the Category for Eagle

  • 'Black' is a colour, not the category for Eagle.
  • 'Symbol' is a potential role, but not the fundamental category.
  • 'Bird' is the biological category that includes Eagles.

Therefore, just as Pink is a type of Colour, an Eagle is a type of Bird.

  • Pink : Colour
  • Eagle : Bird

The related word for Eagle is Bird.
