Correct Answer :

Option B

KDZN

BTQK

Solution :

The correct option is KDZN.

Step-by-step Explanation:

Let's analyze the pattern used in the given code language by observing how each letter of the original word is shifted to form the coded word:

1. DUCK is coded as GXFN:
• D + 3 = G
• U + 3 = X
• C + 3 = F
• K + 3 = N
Each letter is moved 3 positions forward in the English alphabetical series.

2. FROG is coded as IURJ:
• F + 3 = I
• R + 3 = U
• O + 3 = R
• G + 3 = J
This confirms the rule: every letter is shifted forward by +3 positions.

Now, applying the same (+3) rule to the word HAWK:
• H + 3 = K
• A + 3 = D
• W + 3 = Z
• K + 3 = N

Thus, HAWK will be written as KDZN in that code language.
