Select the figure from the options that can replace the question mark (?) and complete the given pattern.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 
In step 1, column elements (T, O, 3) interchange their places in themselves. Top element shifts to middle, middle shifts to bottom and bottom shift to top. Left and right elements (P & triangle) interchange their places. left shifts to right and vice-versa.
Step 2, column elements: Top & bottom elements interchange their places. Triangle moves to middle, T moves to rightmost in middle row and P moves to leftmost of the same row.
Now, step 1 repeats itself and then step 2 repeats after step 1 in the next arrangement. It means step 1 and step 2 is used alternatively. So, option 1 is correct.
