Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. OFSWPVT

The logic used here is:

PENALTY : QFOBMUZ

P + 1 = Q, E + 1 = F, N + 1 = O, A + 1 = B, L + 1 = M, T + 1 = U, Y + 1 = Z

OFFENSE : PGGFOTF

O + 1 = P, F + 1 = G, F + 1 = G, E + 1 = F, N + 1 = O, S + 1 = T, E + 1 = F

Similarly,

NERVOUS : ?

N + 1 = O, E + 1 = F, R + 1 = S, V + 1 = W, O + 1 = P, U + 1 = V, S + 1 = T
