Complete the analogy: “A : Flower :: Milky Way : B”. Select A and B so that each second term is the larger system containing the first.

Introduction / Context:
The question tests “part : whole (container)” mapping. A flower is part of a plant; the Milky Way is part of the broader class “galaxy,” while also being a specific galaxy itself that contains stars and systems.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Flower belongs to a plant.
• Milky Way is a galaxy (a specific one).
• We must keep the container relation aligned.

Concept / Approach:
Choose terms that represent the immediate containing system: plant contains flower; a galaxy is the astronomical system term aligned with “Milky Way.”

Step-by-Step Solution:
1) Part-whole for botany: flower → plant.2) Astronomical mapping: Milky Way → galaxy.3) Maintain symmetry of containment.

Verification / Alternative check:
“Sky” is a visual backdrop, not the system type. “Star” is a component of a galaxy, not the container class.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:

• Plant/Sky: Second term is not the astronomical system type.
• Fruit/Planet: Wrong botanical part, and “planet” is not the container for the Milky Way.
• Garden/Star: “Garden” is a man-made layout; “star” is a component, not container.
• Branch/Universe: “Universe” is too broad; we need the immediate system term.

Common Pitfalls:
Picking overly broad or unrelated containers (sky/universe) rather than the precise system name.

Final Answer:
A. Plant, B. Galaxy
