Answer
Correct Answer: Gloves : Hands
Explanation
Introduction / Context:Goggles protect the eyes. We seek a relation “protective/worn item : target body part.”
Given Data / Assumptions:
- Item must be typically worn on/over the body part.
- Primary purpose: protection/coverage (not styling or support only).
Concept / Approach:“Gloves : Hands” is the direct analogue: gloves are worn on hands for protection. “Helmet : Head” is also a classic protection pair; however, only one keyed answer is allowed per item.
Step-by-Step Solution:
Confirm protective function and direct body-part mapping.Select “Gloves : Hands.”Verification / Alternative check:“Splint : Leg” is medical support (post-injury), not everyday protective gear; “Braid : Hair” is styling; “Tie : Neck” is adornment.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Splint : Leg — therapeutic support.Braid : Hair — style, not protection.Tie : Neck — clothing accessory.Helmet : Head — also valid, but single-answer rule applies.Common Pitfalls:Accepting any worn item without confirming protective function.
Final Answer:Gloves : Hands
