MAT Practice Analogy Questions

Answer: Choice (A) is correct.

A president may offer a pardon to someone who has been convicted of a crime, and a governor may grant clemency to the same. Choice (B) is incorrect, because it does not have the same relationship as president-governor. Choice (C) is incorrect as well. A president has influence on national policy, and a governor might have influence on municipal policy, but the order is incorrect, when matching it with the first half of the analogy. Choice (D) is incorrect because a bureaucracy is a government characterized by many bureaus and officials (and thus could apply to either presidents or governors), and an autocracy is a government in which one person has unlimited power.
