MAT Practice Analogy Questions

Answer: Choice (B) is correct.

Consider the relationship between the words in the first half of the analogy. Something that is leonine is lion-like, so look for the answer pair in which the first word is descriptive of the second word. Choice (A) is incorrect, because ligneous means wood-like, or made of wood, so eliminate that choice. Choice (C) is incorrect, because feline refers to anything that is cat-like, not just female tiger-like. Choice (D) is incorrect, because porcine has to do with pigs, not with porcupines. The correct choice is (B). Something that is simian has to do with monkeys.
