Correct Answer:

Stable

The answer is Stable.

The relationship between the first two words is that the first word is an animal that lives in a certain type of habitat, and the second word is the name of that habitat. The same relationship exists between the third and fourth words.

  • Deer lives in grassland.
  • Horse lives in a stable.
  • Mew is the sound that a cat makes, not a place where a horse lives.
  • Pen is a place where a horse might be kept, but it is not the most common place for a horse to live.
  • Bark is the sound that a dog makes, not a place where a horse lives.
