Analogy — “Fly” is the characteristic movement of a “Parrot”; similarly, “Crawl” is characteristic of a ____. (Choose the animal best known for crawling.)

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: Crocodile

Explanation:

Introduction / Context:Action–agent analogies pair an animal with its characteristic movement. A parrot flies; we must choose an animal commonly described as crawling.

Given Data / Assumptions:

  • Parrot → fly (primary locomotion).
  • We need an animal for which crawl is typical.

Concept / Approach:Among options, “Crocodile” is well-known for crawling along the ground when out of water; “Lizard” also crawls, but the set given emphasizes crocodile in many classic analogy sets.

Step-by-Step Solution:

1) Identify the specific, iconic locomotion.2) Select “Crocodile” as the animal commonly described as crawling.3) Discard alternatives whose primary movements differ.

Verification / Alternative check:Reptilian motion on land is typically crawling; crocodiles are emblematic examples in school-level analogies.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:

Rabbit: hops.Fish: swims.Frog: hops/swims more than crawls.Lizard: plausible crawler but less standard in such analogy sets than crocodile; question expects a single best answer.

Common Pitfalls:Picking multiple plausible crawlers; choose the one most strongly associated in general knowledge contexts.

Final Answer:Crocodile
