Question

Select the option that is related to the third word in the same way as the second word is related to the first word. Bird : Wings :: Fish : ?

• A. Scales
• B. Tail
• C. Fins
• D. Gills

Hint:

In analogy questions, define the relationship in a precise sentence:
"X uses Y to move."
"A bird uses wings to move." \(\rightarrow\) "A fish uses fins to move."
This structural sentence technique prevents confusion between similar-looking options.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Identify the relationship.
Wings are the primary locomotion organs for a Bird -- they enable flight and are the defining feature of how birds move through air.
Step 2: Evaluate options for Fish.
Scales provide body protection. Tail aids in stability. Gills are for breathing. Fins are the primary organs that propel and steer a fish through water.
Step 3: Apply the analogy.
Just as Wings enable movement for Birds, Fins enable movement for Fish. \[ \boxed{\text{Fins}} \]
