Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: Vein
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:
“Ink : Pen” captures a container/conduit relationship: a pen holds and delivers ink. For blood, we need the bodily structure that contains and conducts it. Among the options, only one names the anatomical conduit for blood.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:
Preserve the carrier–content relation. In human anatomy, “vein” and “artery” are the principal conduits. Since only “vein” appears, it is the appropriate analogue for “pen” with respect to “blood.”
Step-by-Step Solution:
Verification / Alternative check:
Basic biology: veins return blood to the heart; arteries carry blood away. The presence of “vein” makes it the correct conduit counterpart.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Common Pitfalls:
Selecting a contextually related term (doctor) instead of the structural carrier demanded by the analogy.
Final Answer:
Vein
