DTongue : Taste
Answer
Correct Answer: Tongue : Taste
Explanation
Introduction / Context:Three pairs map a sensory action to the organ that performs it (action → organ). One pair flips the order to organ → sense, disrupting the shared relation direction.
Given Data / Assumptions:
- See : Eyes → action : organ.
- Hear : Ears → action : organ.
- Smell : Nose → action : organ.
- Tongue : Taste → organ : sense (reversed).
Concept / Approach:Normalize all pairs to the same direction (action → organ) and detect the inversion.
Step-by-Step Solution:
1) A–C match the pattern.2) D is inverted.3) Hence D is the odd one.Verification / Alternative check:Rewriting D as “Taste : Tongue” would align it with the rest.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:They preserve the same mapping direction.
Common Pitfalls:Focusing only on correctness; direction consistency is the actual test.
Final Answer:Tongue : Taste
