Answer 2

Cook : Cook :: Fly : _______

The correct answer is Option A: Flyer.

As, a person who Cook's is a Cook and they cook.

Similarly, someone who flys is a Flyer and they fly.

Option D is the misleading option.

Option C is the past tense of fly, but the corresponding word is cook, so is incorrect

Option B is the present continuous of fly.

Hence Option A is the correct answer.

Comments

When its given Cook : Cook there is slight confusion as on which is noun and verb.
Case1:

Assuming first cook is verb, and second cook is noun, we have fly as verb and flyer as answer.

Case 2:

Assuming first cook to be noun and second cook to be verb, fly (can be a noun referring to an insect if i am not wrong.) then answer should be flying as it is a verb.

Correct me if i am wrong. Thanks!.

You are saying cook:cook :: fly:flying. It is wrong even if you consider noun:verb because if fly:flying then cook:cooking. I hope you got the answer.

Answer 3

option A will be correct because Flyer is verb

Answer 4

Answer is Flyer

The relationship is Cook who cooks the food and flyer fly the plane
