Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
To find the next term in the series AA, BD, CI, DP, ?, analyze the pattern for each letter position separately. The first letters A, B, C, D follow a sequential alphabetical pattern, so the next letter is E. The second letters A, D, I, P correspond to square numbers (1=A, 4=D, 9=I, 16=P). The next square number is 25 (5^2), which corresponds to the letter Y. Therefore, the missing term is EY.
