Question: 485

13. Sociologist is to behavior as

  • A. ballerina is to slipper
  • B. writer is to computer
  • C. zoologist is to tree
  • D. chef is to meal

Correct Answer: E

Explanation:

E is correct. This analogy asks you to make a correlation between an individual and what that individual studies. Sociologists study behavior just as an archaeologist would study an artifact. The other answers are incorrect because a ballerina does not study a slipper (choice A); a writer may use a computer but would not study one (choice B); a zoologist studies animals, not trees (choice C); and a chef prepares meals rather than studying them (choice D).
