Stripes : Zebra :: ? : Flower

This question was previously asked in
RRB NTPC 2019 CBT 1 Question Paper (8-Mar-2021) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is
Colour

This question requires identifying an analogy. We need to find the relationship between the first pair ('Stripes' : 'Zebra') and apply it to find the missing term related to 'Flower'.

Analogy Relationship Identification

The relationship between Stripes and Zebra is that stripes are a distinctive visual pattern found on a zebra.

Applying the Relationship to 'Flower'

We need to find a term that represents a distinctive visual pattern found on a Flower, similar to how stripes are on a zebra.

  • Leaf: While leaves are part of a plant that has flowers, they are not a pattern *on* the flower itself.
  • Fruit: Fruits develop from flowers but are not a visual pattern *on* the flower.
  • Plant: A flower is a part of a plant; this doesn't describe a pattern on the flower.
  • Colour: Colours are the most prominent and characteristic visual patterns displayed by flowers.

Conclusion

Therefore, the term that best relates to 'Flower' in the same way 'Stripes' relates to 'Zebra' is 'Colour'.

The correct option is the one representing Colour.
