Question:

In the following question find out the alternative which will replace the question mark.

huge : tiny :: bitter : ?

Options:

sweet

buttery

Correct Answer:

sweet

Explanation:

Here's why:

Huge : tiny describes a contrast in size, with huge being much larger than tiny.

Bitter : sweet describes a contrast in taste, with bitter being the opposite of sweet.

The analogy emphasizes the relationship between two opposite ends of a spectrum. Just as huge and tiny represent opposite extremes of size, bitter and sweet represent opposite extremes of taste.
