Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Answer: KRKZO

Explanation: The code uses the Atbash cipher, where each letter is replaced by its counterpart from the opposite end of the alphabet (A↔Z, B↔Y, C↔X, etc.). Applying this mapping to each letter of PIPAL gives:

  • P → K

  • I → R

  • P → K

  • A → Z

  • L → O

Putting these together: PIPAL → KRKZO.
