Identify the option figure that when put in place of the question mark (?)…

Concept: In a figure-series problem, the reliable method is to track each element separately and find the single movement rule it repeats from one frame to the next. When every element obeys the same rule from a different starting point, predicting the next frame reduces to advancing each element one more step along that shared path.

Application: Each frame contains five marks: a circle, a triangle, a square, an upward arrow and a downward arrow. They all travel along one fixed loop of five positions, taking exactly one step per frame. The loop is: top-right -> centre -> top-left -> bottom-left -> bottom-right -> (back to top-right). Tracking each mark across the four given frames:

1. Circle: top-left, bottom-left, bottom-right, top-right -> next is the centre.

2. Triangle: bottom-left, bottom-right, top-right, centre -> next is top-left.

3. Square: bottom-right, top-right, centre, top-left -> next is bottom-left.

4. Up arrow: centre, top-left, bottom-left, bottom-right -> next is top-right (it keeps pointing up).

5. Down arrow: top-right, centre, top-left, bottom-left -> next is bottom-right (it keeps pointing down).

So the fifth frame must show: a triangle at the top-left, an up arrow at the top-right, the circle at the centre, the square at the bottom-left, and a down arrow at the bottom-right.

Cross-check: Every position in the new frame is filled by exactly one mark and no mark repeats its previous cell, which is consistent with all five elements advancing one step together. The figure with the triangle at the top-left, circle at the centre and square at the bottom-left (up arrow top-right, down arrow bottom-right) is the only one that satisfies this.
