21. In each of the following questions, there is some relationship between the two terms

Let's analyze the pattern in ASTN : ZTSO and apply it to MSUB.
Observing letter shifts in ASTN → ZTSO:
• S → T (+1)
• T → S (-1)
• N → O (+1)
The pattern is (-1, +1, -1, +1)
Now applying the same pattern to MSUB:
• M → L (-1)
• S → T (+1)
• U → T (-1)
• B → C (+1)
Thus, the missing term is LTTC.
22. The first and third letter of the first group are each moved one step backward while the second second group.
and fourth letters are each moved one step forward to obtain the corresponding letters of the
PALE : LEAP : : POSH : ?
In PALE → LEAP, the letters are rearranged.
For POSH, rearranging the letters in the same way results in SHOP.
23. The first, second, third and fourth letters of the second group are respectively the third, fourth,
second and first letters of the first group.
KMF : LLH : : RMS : ?
The pattern is:
• First letter moves 1 step forward.
• Second letter moves 1 step backward.
• Third letter moves 2 steps forward.
For RMS:
• R - 1 step forward - S
• M - 1 step backward - L
• S - 2 steps forward - U
So, the answer is SLU
