Identify the word pair that expresses the same type of relationship as the pair given below. (Words must be treated as meaningful English words; the relationship is not based on letter count.) Calcium : Osteomalacia
- Lungs : Tuberculosis
- Iron : Anaemia
- Heart : Cardiovascular
- Stomach : Blindness
Correct answer: Iron : Anaemia
Solution
Osteomalacia is caused by a deficiency of Calcium (or Vitamin D). Similarly, Anaemia is caused by a deficiency of Iron. The relationship is: deficiency of a mineral/nutrient leads to a specific disease. 'Lungs : Tuberculosis' is organ-disease (not deficiency), 'Heart : Cardiovascular' is organ-system, and 'Stomach : Blindness' is unrelated.
