The analogy "TIGER : ZOOLOGY" suggests that a tiger is an animal studied within the field of zoology, which is the study of animals. Similarly, in option A, "Mars : Astronomy," Mars is a planet studied within the field of astronomy, which is the study of celestial bodies and the universe. Both analogies link a specific object or entity (tiger, Mars) to the field of study that pertains to it (zoology, astronomy). 

Synonymous words have the same meaning, just as interchangeable things can perform the same function. Both analogies describe a relationship of equivalence.

"MONEY : MISAPPROPRIATION" suggests that money can be misappropriated, meaning it can be wrongly or illegally used. Similarly, in option A, "Writing : Plagiarism," writing can be plagiarized, meaning it can be used inappropriately or without proper acknowledgment. Both analogies involve an act of wrongful or unethical use of something (money in the first case, writing in the second). 

A census is an official count of the population of a country. Similarly, an inventory is a list or count of merchandise or goods in stock. Both involve counting and cataloging items.

A container holds or stores an object. Similarly, a prison holds or confines convicts. This analogy shows a relationship where one thing holds or contains another.

"DEPTH : SEA" suggests a relationship where "depth" is a characteristic used to describe the measurement of the "sea" (or its depth). Similarly, option D, "Height : Mountain," follows the same pattern, where "height" is a characteristic used to describe the measurement of a "mountain." Both analogies involve a physical feature (depth for the sea, height for the mountain) that helps define or measure the extent of that feature. The other options do not fit the same relationship.

A decibel is a unit of measurement for sound intensity, just as a lumen is a unit of measurement for light intensity. Both represent the measurement of their respective phenomena.

Explanation: "DEGREE : TEMPERATURE" suggests a relationship where "degree" is a unit used to measure "temperature." In this case, the degree is a measurement of the level or magnitude of temperature. Similarly, option A, "Ounce : Weight," follows the same pattern, where the "ounce" is a unit used to measure "weight." Both analogies involve a unit of measurement for a specific physical quantity, establishing the relationship between the two terms.

A scalpel is a tool used by a surgeon for precise incisions. Similarly, a palette is a tool used by an artist to mix or display paints. Both analogies describe a tool associated with a professional who uses it for their work.

A dart is a small projectile, while a missile is a larger, more sophisticated projectile. Both are objects designed for launch or propulsion. In the same way, a skiff is a type of boat—a smaller, more specific version of the broader category of boats.
