Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
To complete the analogous pair, we must identify the rule governing the relationship between the first pair of words: MoOn : noOM.
Analysis of the Pattern
The original word is "MoOn".
The coded version is "noOM".
This pattern reverses the order of the letters while maintaining the original capitalization of each letter at its new position.
M (uppercase) at position 1 moves to position 4.
o (lowercase) at position 2 moves to position 3.
O (uppercase) at position 3 moves to position 2.
n (lowercase) at position 4 moves to position 1.
Result: noOM.
Applying the Rule to "StAr"
Original word: StAr
S (uppercase) at position 1 moves to position 4.
t (lowercase) at position 2 moves to position 3.
A (uppercase) at position 3 moves to position 2.
r (lowercase) at position 4 moves to position 1.
Following this reversal, we get: rAtS.
