The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Analysis of "MOTHER" coded as "OMHTRE":
Letter positions are rearranged as follows:

- "O" (2nd) moves to 1st position.
- "T" (3rd) and "H" (4th) are swapped.
- "E" (5th) and "R" (6th) remain in their original positions.

Applying the same pattern to "FATHER":
- "F" (1st) moves to 2nd position.
- "A" (2nd) moves to 1st position.
- "T" (3rd) and "H" (4th) are swapped.
- "E" (5th) and "R" (6th) remain in their original positions.
Therefore, "FATHER" is coded as "AFHTRE".
