Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e OZNY

Understanding Application

The logic used here is:

Each letter is replaced by the reverse positional letter (A ⇔ Z, B ⇔ Y, C ⇔ X, D ⇔ W, E ⇔ V, F ⇔ U, G ⇔ T, H ⇔ S, I ⇔ R, J ⇔ Q, K ⇔ P, L ⇔ O, M ⇔ N)

STOP : HGLK

H ⇔ S

G ⇔ T

L ⇔ O

K ⇔ P

Similarly,

LAMB : OZNY

L ⇔ O

A ⇔ Z

M ⇔ N

B ⇔ Y

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
