Answer
Correct Answer: Grain : Crop
Explanation
Introduction / Context:Three pairs name an unwanted impurity or leftover matched with a main commodity (food/drink). One pair instead names the desirable produce and its broader category (part→whole of the good itself).
Given Data / Assumptions:
- Chaff : Wheat → chaff is removed from wheat grain.
- Grit : Pulses → grit/pebbles are impurities removed from pulses.
- Dregs : Wine → sediment/residue in wine.
- Grain : Crop → grain is the harvested produce of a crop (not an impurity).
Concept / Approach:Group by “impurity/residue vs main item.” The lone positive-produce relation is the odd one.
Step-by-Step Solution:
1) A, B, D are impurity/residue → main item.2) C is produce → category.3) Hence C is the odd pair.Verification / Alternative check:During processing, chaff/grit/dregs are removed; grain is what we keep.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:They consistently reflect “remove the unwanted from the wanted.”
Common Pitfalls:Assuming any relation counts; the question targets impurity mapping.
Final Answer:Grain : Crop
