D Correct answer
Explanation

The relationship between "Needle : Thread" is that a needle needs thread to fulfill its primary function (sewing). Similarly, a pin is typically pushed into a cushion or cushion-like surface to hold things in place. A cushion is where a pin belongs or is used. This is an object-destination/function relationship. The other pairs don't show this relationship: Leader:Follower shows hierarchy, Prick:Sew shows action-purpose, and Bat:Ball shows associated objects used together.
