Explanation and memory cue
Yaks belong to the genus Bos within the subfamily Bovinae, making them close relatives of domestic cattle, including cows and oxen. Oxen are typically castrated male cattle, and cows are female cattle, all belonging to the species Bos taurus or closely related species.

Therefore, the best analogy is 'Yak : Oxen' because yaks and oxen are both bovines closely related within the same genus, whereas antelopes are more distantly related.
