Correct Answer: Brother : Sister


Solution : Given:
Horse : Mare (The relation is that of male and female. A horse refers to the male while a mare refers to the female.)

Let's check the given options –
First option: Nephew : Uncle; Nephew and Uncle do not depict the male-female relationship.
Second option: Son : Father; Son and Father do not depict the male-female relationship.
Third option: Brother : Sister; The feminine counterpart of the word brother is sister.
Fourth option: Cow : Bull; The cow is the female counterpart of the bull but the words are written in the reverse order.

So, only the third option depicts the same relation as the given word pair. Hence, the third option is correct.
