Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Answer: The wrong term is JFL; the correct term should be JEL.

  • First letters: A → D → G → J → M (each advances by +3).

  • Second letters: P → U → Z → E → J (each advances by +5; after Z wrap to A). Therefore the fourth term's second letter should be E, not F.

  • Third letters: Q → X → E → L → S (each advances by +7; with wrap after Z).

Conclusion: JFL is wrong because its second letter is F instead of the expected E. The corrected sequence is APQ, DUX, GZE, JEL, MJS.
