As ‘Medicine’ is used by a ‘Patient’ in the same way ‘Education’ is used by a ‘Student’.
The relationship between "Medicine" and "Patient" can be described as follows:
- Medicine is a field of study that is concerned with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases and disorders.
- A patient is someone who is receiving medical attention, care, or treatment from a healthcare professional.
Using this analogy, we can see that "Patient" is the recipient or beneficiary of "Medicine". Similarly, we can use this relationship to determine the correct answer to the given question.
The analogy between "Education" and "Student" can be described as follows:
- Education is a field of study that is concerned with the teaching and learning of knowledge, skills, and values.
- A student is someone who is receiving education, training, or instruction from a teacher or educational institution.
Using this analogy, we can see that "Student" is the recipient or beneficiary of "Education". Therefore, the correct answer to the given question is Option C, Student.
It is important to note that this type of question is known as an analogy question, which requires the test-taker to identify a relationship between two concepts and then find another pair of concepts that share a similar relationship. Analogies can be useful for testing a variety of cognitive skills, such as problem-solving, reasoning, and critical thinking.
