To complete the analogy "kitten : cat," we need to find a word pair that have a similar relationship. The word "kitten" is a young or baby form of a cat, so we need to find a word that represents a young or baby form of another animal.
Looking at the given options:
- "dog : wolf" does not represent a young form. It is more like two different species or types of animals rather than a parent-child relationship.
- "foal : horse" is the correct answer. A foal is a baby horse, just like a kitten is a baby cat.
- "cow : calf" is also a possible answer. A calf is a baby cow, just like a kitten is a baby cat.
- "bird : eagle" does not represent a young form either. It is more like a specific type or species of bird.
So the correct word pair to complete the analogy is "foal : horse" or "cow : calf".
