Question:

From the given options, select the pair of words which carries the same relationship to the given pair of words:

Ocean : Wave

Options:

Desert : Water

Forest : Tree

Mountain : Rock

River : Current

Correct Answer:

Desert : Water

Explanation:

Here's why:

Ocean : Wave describes a large body of water and its characteristic movement. Waves are a fundamental and defining feature of oceans, constantly moving and shaping the coastline.

River : Current similarly describes a flowing body of water and its inherent motion. Currents are a defining feature of rivers, continuously pushing water downstream and shaping the riverbed.

Both pairs highlight the relationship between a specific water body and its characteristic form of movement.
