Water : P :: Food : Q
Choose the P and Q combination from the options below to form a meaningful analogy.
Answer: A
The pair is P = Thirst; Q = Hunger.
Water relieves thirst, and food relieves hunger: each item is what satisfies the corresponding need. Water : Thirst :: Food : Hunger keeps the same relation on both sides.
'P = Drink' gives an action done with water, which does not parallel hunger as a need. 'Q = Satiated' is the state after eating, not the need food meets, so it breaks the parallel with thirst. 'Wet' is a property of water and 'Critic' has no link to food at all.
