Direction: For each of the following questions select the answer pair that expresses a relationship most similar to that expressed in the capitalised pair.

  1. KERNEL : SHELL ::
    1. Caterpillar : Pupa
    2. Larva : Cacoon
    3. Lassitude : Syncope
    4. Passenger : Car
Correct Option: B

As we know that ,
Kernel means the core of a seed and hence it could refer to the kernel being inside the shell. Option (a) caterpillar and pupa are two stages of an insect. One is not inside another hence it does not have the same relationship. Option (c) lassitude means laziness and syncope refers to the loss of one or more letters in the interior of a word. Option (d) is not about the natural relationship also all passengers are not related to car. Option (b) carries the same relationship almost.
Thus , required answer will be KERNEL : SHELL :: Larva : Cacoon .
