Question

Motorcycle is related to Battery in the same way as Life is related to

  1. A. Moon
  2. B. Earth
  3. C. Star
  4. D. Sun (Correct answer)

Correct Answer

Option D — Sun

Detailed Solution & Explanation

The correct answer is Sun.

Key Points

  • This is an analogy question.
  • Just as a Battery is the source of power/energy that runs a Motorcycle, the Sun is the ultimate source of energy for Life on Earth.
  • The relationship in both pairs is that of an energy source and the thing it powers.
  • The Sun drives photosynthesis in plants (the base of nearly all food chains), the water cycle, weather and climate — virtually all life processes depend directly or indirectly on solar energy.

Additional Information

  • the Moon, Earth and stars do not power life the way the Sun does — so completing the analogy 'Motorcycle : Battery :: Life : ?', the answer is Sun, option (D).
