Detect the analogy: Fly : Bee :: Bee : ?

Correct answer: D

A
Cockroach
B
Spider
C
Termite
D
Insect
Correct
Explanation and memory cue

The analogy 'Fly : Bee :: Bee : ?' is about categorization and relationship. A fly and a bee are both insects, but a bee is a specific type of insect known for its role in pollination and honey production. The analogy suggests that just as a fly is related to a bee (both insects), the bee is related to a broader category it belongs to, which is 'Insect'. Among the options, 'Insect' (D) is the correct answer because it represents the category that includes bees, unlike the other options which are specific insects or arachnids. The original explanation incorrectly referenced 'Ant' which was not an option and caused confusion. The best analogy match is the broader category 'Insect'.
