Detect analogy: Gram : Grain :: Pound : ?
Explanation and memory cue
The analogy is between 'Gram' and 'Grain', both of which are units of weight measurement. A grain is a small unit of weight historically used in the avoirdupois and troy weight systems, and a gram is a metric unit of mass. Similarly, 'Pound' is also a unit of weight. Therefore, the correct analogy completion is 'Weight', as it represents the category or concept that 'Gram', 'Grain', and 'Pound' all measure. The original answer 'C' (Cereals) is incorrect because 'Grain' in this context refers to a unit of weight, not cereal grains.
