Answer
Correct Answer: magnetism:attraction
Explanation
Given data
- Gravity causes an attractive pull.
Concept / ApproachWe need a phenomenon → effect mapping. Magnetism produces magnetic attraction, parallel to gravity producing pull.
Option analysismagnetism : attraction — phenomenon → effect; correct. ✅iron : metal — substance → category; not effect. ❌north pole : directions — location vs concept; not causal effect. ❌dust : desert — component vs environment; not effect. ❌
Final Answermagnetism : attraction
