Analogy Reasoning: Identifying Word Pair Relationships

The question asks to find a word pair that has the same relationship as the given pair: Heart : Organ.

The relationship in the given pair is that a Heart is a specific example of an Organ. It follows the pattern: Specific Item : General Category.

Analyzing Options for Specific : Category Relationship

We need to find an option that matches this Specific : General Category pattern.

  • Option A: Bus : Vehicle
    A Bus is a specific type of Vehicle. This matches the relationship (Specific : Category).
  • Option B: Car : Road
    A Car is used on a Road. This represents a 'used on' or 'location' relationship, not Specific : Category.
  • Option C: Ship : Sea
    A Ship operates on the Sea. This is a 'location' or 'medium' relationship, not Specific : Category.
  • Option D: Train : Rail
    A Train runs on Rails. This represents a 'runs on' or 'track' relationship, not Specific : Category.

Conclusion: Matching Word Pair

Only Option A, Bus : Vehicle, correctly mirrors the relationship where a specific item (Bus) belongs to a general category (Vehicle), just like Heart is a specific type of Organ.
