Analogy

Question:

Virus : Fever ::____________:______________

Options:

Debris : Explosion

Germ : Disease

Earthquake : Tranquillity

Carelessness : Shrewd

Correct Answer:

Germ : Disease

Explanation:

The answer is Germ : Disease.

The analogy is cause : effect. A virus is the cause of fever, and a germ is the cause of disease. The other options do not make sense in the context of the analogy.

  • Explosion is the cause of debris and not vice versa.
  • Earthquake is the cause of destruction, but not tranquility.
  • Carelessness is the cause of accidents, but not shrewdness.
