Reptile is to lizard as flower is to what?

• A. petal
• B. stem
• C. daisy
• D. alligator

Answer: (C)

The relationship between "reptile" and "lizard" is one of classification, where a lizard is a specific type of reptile. To find a comparable relationship for "flower," we seek a specific type of flower. "Daisy" represents a specific type or kind of flower, just as a lizard represents a specific type or kind of reptile.

The other options do not represent specific classifications in the way that a daisy does. "Petal" and "stem" are parts of a flower rather than specific types, while "alligator," while a reptile, does not fit the category of being a type of flower. Therefore, "daisy" is the correct answer because it maintains the same relationship of a specific instance within a broader category.
