Bird : Nest :: Bee : _______

Select the correct option to complete the analogy.

  1. Option A: Kennel
  2. Option B: Hammock
  3. Option C: Hive (correct)
  4. Option D: Lair

Answer

(C)

Explanation

A bird builds a nest and lives in it. The structure that bees build and live in is a hive, so Bee : Hive keeps the same relation.

The other words do not fit: a kennel is a shelter for a dog, a lair is the den of a wild animal such as a fox or a lion, and a hammock is a hanging bed for people.
